Day Thirty Eight, Maundy Thursday

Psalm 116

I love the Lord, because he heard my voice:
the voice of my supplication.

2 Because he inclined his ear to me:
in the day that I called to him.

11 How shall I repay the Lord:
for all his benefits to me?

12 I will take up the cup of salvation:
and call upon the name of the Lord.

13 I will pay my vows to the Lord:
in the presence of all his people.

14 Grievous in the sight of the Lord:
is the death of his faithful ones.

15 O Lord, I am your servant your servant and the child of your handmaid:

costly and infinite enduring, overcoming evil with good.
