Psalm 118

¹ Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.

² Let Israel now say, That his lovingkindness endureth for ever.

³ Let the house of Aaron now say, That his lovingkindness endureth for ever.

⁴ Let them now that fear Jehovah say, That his lovingkindness endureth for ever.

⁵ Out of my distress I called upon Jehovah: Jehovah answered me and set me in a large place.

⁶ Jehovah is on my side; I will not fear: What can man do unto me?

⁷ Jehovah is on my side among them that help me: Therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.

⁸ It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to put confidence in man.

⁹ It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to put confidence in princes.

¹⁰ All nations compassed me about: In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.

¹¹ They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.

¹² They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.

¹³ Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; But Jehovah helped me.

¹⁴ Jehovah is my strength and song; And he is become my salvation.

¹⁵ The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous: The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly.

¹⁶ The right hand of Jehovah is exalted: The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly.

¹⁷ I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of Jehovah.

¹⁸ Jehovah hath chastened me sore; But he hath not given me over unto death.

¹⁹ Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto Jehovah.

²⁰ This is the gate of Jehovah; The righteous shall enter into it.

²¹ I will give thanks unto thee; for thou hast answered me, And art become my salvation.

²² The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner.

²³ This is Jehovah’s doing; It is marvellous in our eyes.

²⁴ This is the day which Jehovah hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.

²⁵ Save now, we beseech thee, O Jehovah: O Jehovah, we beseech thee, send now prosperity.

²⁶ Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah: We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah.

²⁷ Jehovah is God, and he hath given us light: Bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.

²⁸ Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto thee: Thou art my God, I will exalt thee.

²⁹ Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
