Psalm 116:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³The snares of death encompassed me;
    the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me;
    I suffered distress and anguish.
⁴Then I called on the name of the Lord:
    ‘O Lord, I pray, save my life!’

⁵Gracious is the Lord, and righteous;
our God is merciful.
