Psalms 116

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Peshitta
1 I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my supplications.	1 ܪܚܡܬ ܕܢܫܡܥ ܡܪܝܐ ܩܠܐ ܕܒܥܘܬܝ
2 Because he inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.	2 ܘܢܨܠܐ ܐܕܢܗ ܠܘܬܝ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܐܩܪܝܘܗܝ
3 The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish.	3 ܡܛܠ ܕܚܕܪܘܢܝ ܚܒ̈ܠܐ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܘܐ̈ܘܠܨܢܐ ܕܫܝܘܠ ܡܛܝܘܢܝ ܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܘܕܐܘܘܐܢܐ ܐܫܟܚܬ
4 Then I called on the name of the LORD: "O LORD, I beseech thee, save my life!"	4 ܘܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܩܪܝܬ ܐܘܢ ܡܪܝܐ ܦܨܗ̇ ܠܢܦܫܝ
5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; our God is merciful.	5 ܡܪܚܡܢ ܐܢܬ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܙܕܝܩ ܘܐܠܗܐ ܐܢܬ ܡܪܚܡܢܐ
6 The LORD preserves the simple; when I was brought low, he saved me.	6 ܢܛܪ ܠܫܒܪ̈ܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܡܟܟܢܝ ܘܦܪܩܢܝ
7 Return, O my soul, to your rest; for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.	7 ܐܬܦܢܝ ܢܦܫܝ ܠܢܝܚܟܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܦܪܥܟܝ
8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling;	8 ܡܛܠ ܕܦܨܝܬ ܢܦܫܝ ܡܢ ܡܘܬܐ ܘܪ̈ܓܠܝ ܡܢ ܫܪ̈ܥܬܐ
9 I walk before the LORD in the land of the living.	9 ܕܐܫܦܪ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܡܪܝܐ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܕܚ̈ܝܐ
10 I kept my faith, even when I said, "I am greatly afflicted";	10 ܗܝܡܢܬ ܘܡܠܠܬ ܘܐܬܡܟܟܬ ܛܒ
11 I said in my consternation, "Men are all a vain hope."	11 ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܒܪܥܝܠܘܬܝ ܕܟܠ ܒܪܢܫ ܕܓܠ
12 What shall I render to the LORD for all his bounty to me?	12 ܡܢܐ ܐܦܪܘܥ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܦܘܪ̈ܥܢܘܗܝ ܥܠܝ
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD,	13 ܟܣܐ ܕܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܐܩܒܠ ܘܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܐܩܪܐ
14 I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.	14 ܢܕܪ̈ܝ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܦܪܘܥ ܩܕܡ ܟܠܗ ܥܡܐ
15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.	15 ܝܩܝܪ ܗܘ ܒܥܝ̈ܢܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܡܘܬܐ ܕܙܕܝܩ̈ܘܗܝ
16 O LORD, I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast loosed my bonds.	16 ܐܘ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܢܐ ܥܒܕܟ ܥܒܕܟ ܐܢܐ ܘܒܪܗ̇ ܕܐܡܬܟ ܫܪܝܬ ܡܢܝ ܐܣܘܪ̈ܝ
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.	17 ܠܟ ܐܕܒܚ ܕܒܚ̈ܐ ܕܫܘܒܚܐ ܘܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܐܩܪܐ
18 I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,	18 ܢܕܪ̈ܝ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܦܪܘܥ ܩܕܡ ܟܘܠܗ ܥܡܗ
19 in the courts of the house of the LORD, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!	19 ܒܕܪ̈ܐ ܕܒܝܬܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܒܓܘܟܝ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ
