118:1Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
118:2Let Israel now say,
That his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
118:3Let the house of Aaron now say,
That his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
118:4Let them now that fear Jehovah say,
That his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
118:5Out of my distress I called upon Jehovah:
Jehovah answered me and set me in a large place.
118:6Jehovah is on my side; I will not fear:
What can man do unto me?
118:7Jehovah is on my side among them that help me:
Therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
118:8It is better to take refuge in Jehovah
Than to put confidence in man.
118:9It is better to take refuge in Jehovah
Than to put confidence in princes.
118:10All nations compassed me about:
In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.
118:11They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about:
In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.
118:12They compassed me about like bees;
They are quenched as the fire of thorns:
In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.
118:13Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall;
But Jehovah helped me.
118:14Jehovah is my strength and song;
And he is become my salvation.
118:15The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous:
The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly.
118:16The right hand of Jehovah is exalted:
The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly.
118:17I shall not die, but live,
And declare the works of Jehovah.
118:18 Jehovah hath chastened me sore;
But he hath not given me over unto death.
118:19Open to me the gates of righteousness:
I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto Jehovah.
118:20This is the gate of Jehovah;
The righteous shall enter into it.
118:21I will give thanks unto thee; for thou hast answered me,
And art become my salvation.
118:22The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner.
118:23This is Jehovah's doing;
It is marvellous in our eyes.
118:24This is the day which Jehovah hath made;
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
118:25Save now, we beseech thee, O Jehovah:
O Jehovah, we beseech thee, send now prosperity.
118:26Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah:
We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah.
118:27Jehovah is God, and he hath given us light:
Bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.
118:28Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto thee:
Thou art my God, I will exalt thee.
118:29Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
