Psalm 116:1-7

New International Version

³ The cords of death^(E) entangled me,
    the anguish of the grave came over me;
    I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
⁴ Then I called on the name^(F) of the Lord:
    “Lord, save me!^(G)”

⁵ The Lord is gracious and righteous;^(H)
    our God is full of compassion.^(I)
6 The Lord protects the unwary;
    when I was brought low,^(J) he saved me.^(K)

⁷ Return to your rest,^(L) my soul,
    for the Lord has been good^(M) to you.
