I will call out to him as long as I live. # 116:2 Ps 17:6; 40:1

and the torments of Sheol overcame me;
I encountered trouble and sorrow. # 116:3 Ps 18:4–5

for the Lord has been good to you. # 116:7 Ps 13:6; Jr 6:16

my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling. # 116:8 Ps 49:15; 56:13
9I will walk before the Lord
in the land of the living. # 116:9 Ps 27:13
10I believed, even when I said,
“I am severely oppressed.” # 116:10 2Co 4:13
11In my alarm I said,
“Everyone is a liar.” # 116:11 Ps 31:22; 62:9; Rm 3:4

for all the good he has done for me? # 116:12 2Ch 32:25; 1Th 3:9

I am your servant, the son of your female servant.
You have loosened my bonds. # 116:16 Jb 12:18; Ps 86:16; 107:14

in the presence of all his people, # 116:18 Ps 22:25; 50:14
19in the courts of the Lord’s house —
within you, Jerusalem. # 116:19 Ps 96:8; 102:21
Hallelujah!
