Psalms 116:1-7

ERV(i) 1 I LOVE the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. 2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call [upon him] as long as I live. 3 The cords of death compassed me, and the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. 4 Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. 5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful. 6 The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me. 7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
