116:2 quia inclinavit aurem suam mihi et in diebus meis invocabo te

116:3 The sorrows of death have compassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:

116:7 convertere anima mea in requiem tuam quia Dominus benefecit tibi

116:8 For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.

116:12 What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things that he hath rendered to me?

116:12 quid retribuam Domino pro omnibus quae retribuit mihi

116:13 calicem salutaris accipiam et nomen Domini invocabo

116:14 I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:

116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

116:15 pretiosa in conspectu Domini mors sanctorum eius

116:16 O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:

116:16 o Domine quia ego servus tuus ego servus tuus et filius ancillae tuae disrupisti vincula mea

116:17 I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.

116:17 tibi sacrificabo hostiam laudis et in nomine Domini invocabo

116:18 I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:

116:18 vota mea Domino reddam in conspectu omnis populi eius

116:19 In the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.

116:19 in atriis domus Domini in medio tui Hierusalem
