Psalms 116:12
10 I believed, therefore I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”
11 In my alarm I said, “All men are liars!”
How can I repay the LORD for all His goodness to me?
13 I will lift the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
14 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
