Psalm 116: 10, 15-19
The responsorial psalm for this week is from Psalm 116, a hymn of thanksgiving. (It appears as Psalm 114 in the Greek and Latin Bibles.)
The psalm moves from faithfulness in the face of distress, through release from servitude from God, to public celebration of thanksgiving for this deliverance. The elements of lament are accompanied by confidence in God’s compassion and gratitude for God’s goodness.
