Berean Standard Bible
“Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.”
Psalms 116 is a personal song of thanksgiving from someone who was near death, entangled by the cords of the grave, and cried out to the Lord, who saved him. In the second half the psalmist asks how he can repay God and resolves to fulfill his vows in public worship.
