 [ 118 ] 

 118:1 Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.

 118:2 Let Israel now say, “His mercy endures forever."

 118:3 Let the house of Aaron now say, “His mercy endures forever."

 118:4 Let those who fear the Lord now say, “His mercy endures forever."

 118:5 I called on the Lord in distress; The Lord answered me and set me in a broad place.

 118:6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?

 118:7 The Lord is for me among those who help me; Therefore I shall see my desire on those who hate me.

 118:8 It is better to trust in the Lord Than to put confidence in man.

 118:9 It is better to trust in the Lord Than to put confidence in princes.

 118:10 All nations surrounded me, But in the name of the Lord will destroy them.

 118:11 They surrounded me, Yes, they surrounded me; But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

 118:12 They surrounded me like bees; They were quenched like a fire of thorns; For in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

 118:13 You pushed me violently, that I might fall, But the Lord helped me.

 118:14 The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.

 118:15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation Is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.

 118:16 The right hand of the Lord is exalted; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.

 118:17 I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the Lord.

 118:18 The Lord has chastened me severely, But He has not given me over to death.

 118:19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go through them, And I will praise the Lord.

 118:20 This is the gate of the Lord, Through which the righteous shall enter.

 118:21 I will praise You, For You have answered me, And have become my salvation.
