Psalm 116:7–13

7 Return to your rest, my soul,

for the Lord has been good to you.

8 For you, Lord, have delivered me from death,

my eyes from tears,

my feet from stumbling,

9 that I may walk before the Lord

in the land of the living.

10 I trusted in the Lord when I said,

“I am greatly afflicted”;

11 in my alarm I said,

“Everyone is a liar.”

12 What shall I return to the Lord

for all his goodness to me?

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation

and call on the name of the Lord.

7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul;

For the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death,

Mine eyes from tears,

And my feet from falling.

9 I will walk before the Lord

In the land of the living.

10 I believed, therefore have I spoken:

I was greatly afflicted:

11 I said in my haste,

All men are liars.

12 What shall I render unto the Lord

For all his benefits toward me?

13 I will take the cup of salvation,

And call upon the name of the Lord.

7 Let my soul be at rest again,

for the Lord has been good to me.

8 He has saved me from death,

my eyes from tears,

my feet from stumbling.

9 And so I walk in the Lord’s presence

as I live here on earth!

10 I believed in you, so I said,

“I am deeply troubled, Lord.”

11 In my anxiety I cried out to you,

“These people are all liars!”

12 What can I offer the Lord

for all he has done for me?

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation

and praise the Lord’s name for saving me.

7 Return to your rest, O my soul,

For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

8 For You have delivered my soul from death,

My eyes from tears,

And my feet from falling.

9 I will walk before the Lord

In the land of the living.

10 I believed, therefore I spoke,

“I am greatly afflicted.”

11 I said in my haste,

“All men are liars.”

12 What shall I render to the Lord

For all His benefits toward me?

13 I will take up the cup of salvation,

And call upon the name of the Lord.

7 I said to myself, “Relax,

because the Lord takes care of you.”

8 Lord, you saved me from death.

You stopped my eyes from crying;

you kept me from being defeated.

9 So I will walk with the Lord

in the land of the living.

10 I believed, so I said,

“I am completely ruined.”

11 In my distress I said,

“All people are liars.”

12 What can I give the Lord

for all the good things he has given to me?

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation,

and I will pray to the Lord.

7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul;

For Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death,

Mine eyes from tears,

And my feet from falling.

9 I will walk before Jehovah

In the land of the living.

10 I believe, for I will speak:

I was greatly afflicted:

11 I said in my haste,

All men are liars.

12 What shall I render unto Jehovah

For all his benefits toward me?

13 I will take the cup of salvation,

And call upon the name of Jehovah.

7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee. 8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, my feet from falling. 9 I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.

10 I believed, therefore have I spoken. As for me, I was greatly afflicted. 11 I said in my haste, All men are liars. 12 What shall I render unto Jehovah, for all his benefits toward me? 13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of Jehovah.

7 Be at peace again, my soul, 

because the Lord has been good to you. 

8 You saved me from death. 

You saved my eyes from tears ⸤and⸥ my feet from stumbling. 

9 I will walk in the Lord’s presence in this world of the living. 

10 I kept my faith even when I said, 

“I am suffering terribly.” 

11 I also said when I was panic-stricken, 

“Everyone is undependable.” 

12 How can I repay the Lord 

for all the good that he has done for me? 

13 I will take the cup of salvation 

and call on the name of the Lord. 

7 Return to your rest, my soul,

for the Lord has been good to you.

8 For You, Lord, rescued me from death,

my eyes from tears,

my feet from stumbling.

9 I will walk before the Lord

in the land of the living.

10 I believed, even when I said,

“I am severely afflicted.”

11 In my alarm I said,

“Everyone is a liar.”

12 How can I repay the Lord

for all the good He has done for me?

13 I will take the cup of salvation

and call on the name of Yahweh.

7 Return, O my soul, to your rest,

for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

8 For you have delivered my soul from death,

my eyes from tears,

my feet from stumbling.

9 I walk before the Lord

in the land of the living.

10 I kept my faith, even when I said,

“I am greatly afflicted”;

11 I said in my consternation,

“Everyone is a liar.”

12 What shall I return to the Lord

for all his bounty to me?

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation

and call on the name of the Lord;

7 Return, O my soul, to your repose,

for Yahweh has dealt bountifully with you.

8 For you have rescued me from death,

my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.

9 I will walk before Yahweh

in the land of the living.

10 I believed when I spoke,

“I am afflicted greatly.”

11 I said in my haste,

“Everyone is a liar.”

12 What shall I give back to Yahweh

for all his benefits to me?

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation

and proclaim the name of Yahweh.

7 I said to myself, “Be calm.

The Lord has been good to me.”

8 Lord, you have saved me from death.

You have dried the tears from my eyes.

You have kept me from tripping and falling.

9 So now I can enjoy life here with you

while I’m still living.

10 I believed in you even when I said to myself,

“I’m in great pain.”

11 When I was terrified, I said to myself,

“No one tells the truth.”

12 The Lord has been so good to me!

How can I ever pay him back?

13 I will bring an offering of wine to the Lord

and thank him for saving me.

I will worship him.

7 Return to your rest, O my soul,

For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

8 For You have rescued my soul from death,

My eyes from tears,

My feet from stumbling.

9 I shall walk before the Lord

In the land of the living.

10 I believed when I said,

“I am greatly afflicted.”

11 I said in my alarm,

“All men are liars.”

12 What shall I render to the Lord

For all His benefits toward me?

13 I shall lift up the cup of salvation

And call upon the name of the Lord.
