Psalm 116:10–117:2

¹⁰I believed in you, so I said,

“I am deeply troubled, Lord.”

¹¹In my anxiety I cried out to you,

“These people are all liars!”

¹²What can I offer the Lord

for all he has done for me?

¹³I will lift up the cup of salvation

and praise the Lord’s name for saving me.

¹⁴I will keep my promises to the Lord

in the presence of all his people.

¹⁵The Lord cares deeply

when his loved ones die.

¹⁶O Lord, I am your servant;

yes, I am your servant, born into your household;

you have freed me from my chains.

¹⁷I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving

and call on the name of the Lord.

¹⁸I will fulfill my vows to the Lord

in the presence of all his people—

¹⁹in the house of the Lord

in the heart of Jerusalem.

Praise the Lord!

Psalm 117

¹Praise the Lord, all you nations.

Praise him, all you people of the earth.

²For his unfailing love for us is powerful;

the Lord’s faithfulness endures forever.

Praise the Lord!
