13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Yahweh.
Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.
Yahweh assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
So we will not turn away from you. Revive us, and we will call on your name.
Because he has turned his ear to me, Therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
In that day you will say, "Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name. Declare his doings among the peoples. Proclaim that his name is exalted!
He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, "Take this, and share it among yourselves, for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of God comes."
You can't both drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You can't both partake of the table of the Lord, and of the table of demons.
In the same way he also took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord's cup in a manner unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

These are such breathings of a holy soul as bespeak it very happy.
Psa 116:1-9
In this part of the psalm we have,
Psa 116:10-19
The Septuagint and some other ancient versions make these verses a distinct psalm separate from the former; and some have called it the Martyr's psalm, I suppose for the sake of v. 15. Three things David here makes confession of:-
