Psa 116:1 I (a) love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications.

(a) He grants that no pleasure is so great as to feel God's help in our need, neither that anything more stirs up our love toward him.


Psa 116:2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon [him] (b) as long as I live.

(b) That is in convenient time to seek help, which was when he was in distress.


Psa 116:5 Gracious [is] the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God [is] (c) merciful.

(c) He shows forth the fruit of his love in calling on him, confessing him to be just and merciful and to help them who are destitute of aid and counsel.


Psa 116:7 Return unto thy rest, O (d) my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.

(d) Which was disturbed before, now rest on the Lord, for he has been beneficial towards you.


Psa 116:9 I will (e) walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

(e) The Lord will preserve me and save my life.


Psa 116:10 (f) I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:

(f) I felt all these things, and therefore was moved by faith to confess them, 2Co 4:13.


Psa 116:11 I said in my (g) haste, All men [are] liars.

(g) In my great distress I thought God would not regard man, who is but lies and vanity, yet I overcame this temptation and felt the contrary.


Psa 116:13 I will (h) take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.

(h) In the Law they used to make a banquet when they gave solemn thanks to God, and to take the cup and drink in sign of thanksgiving.


Psa 116:15 Precious in the sight of the LORD [is] the (i) death of his saints.

(i) I perceive that God has a care over his, so that he both disposes their death, and takes an account.


Psa 116:18 I will pay my (k) vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,

(k) I will thank him for his benefits, for that is a just payment, to confess that we owe all to God.
