Psalm 115

Masoretic — Psalm 116

Alleluia.

I believed; therefore, I spoke;

I was greatly humbled.

I said in my ecstasy,

“Every man is a liar.”

What shall I give back to the Lord

For all He rendered to me?

I will take up the cup of salvation,

And call upon the name of the Lord.

Precious in the sight of the Lord

Is the death of His holy ones.

O Lord, I am Your servant;

I am Your servant and the son of Your handmaid.

You broke apart my bonds;

I will offer a sacrifice of praise;

I shall pay my vows to the Lord

In the presence of all His people,

In the courts of the Lord's house,

In your midst, O Jerusalem.
