Psalms 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. (Psalms 118:1-29, ASV)

1. Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever. 2. Let Israel now say that his loving kindness endures forever. 3. Let the house of Aaron now say that his loving kindness endures forever. 4. Now let those who fear Yahweh say that his loving kindness endures forever. 5. Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom. 6. Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? 7. Yahweh is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me. 8. It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in man. 9. It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in princes. 10. All the nations surrounded me, but in Yahweh’s name, I cut them off. 11. They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In Yahweh’s name I indeed cut them off. 12. They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In Yahweh’s name I cut them off. 13. You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, but Yahweh helped me. 14. Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. 15. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. “The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly. 16. The right hand of Yahweh is exalted! The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly!” 17. I will not die, but live, and declare Yah’s works. 18. Yah has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death. 19. Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to Yah. 20. This is the gate of Yahweh; the righteous will enter into it. 21. I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, and have become my salvation. 22. The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. 23. This is Yahweh’s doing. It is marvelous in our eyes. 24. This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it! 25. Save us now, we beg you, Yahweh! Yahweh, we beg you, send prosperity now. 26. Blessed is he who comes in Yahweh’s name! We have blessed you out of Yahweh’s house. 27. Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar. 28. You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you. 29. Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever. (Psalms 118:1-29, WEB)

1. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever. 2. Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever. 3. Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever. 4. Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endureth for ever. 5. I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place. ^{in distress: Heb. out of distress} 6. The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? ^{on: Heb. for me} 7. The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me. 8. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. 9. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. 10. All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. ^{destroy: Heb. cut them off} 11. They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 12. They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. ^{destroy: Heb. cut down} 13. Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. 14. The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation. 15. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 16. The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 17. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. 18. The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. 19. Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD: 20. This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. 21. I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. 22. The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. 23. This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. ^{the LORD's: Heb. from the LORD} 24. This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 25. Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity. 26. Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD. 27. God is the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar. 28. Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee. 29. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. (Psalms 118:1-29, KJV)

All nations have compassed me about, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off. 11. They have compassed me about, Yea, they have compassed me about, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off. 12. They compassed me about as bees, They have been extinguished as a fire of thorns, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off. 13. Thou hast sorely thrust me to fall, And Jehovah hath helped me. 14. My strength and song [is] Jah, And He is to me for salvation. 15. A voice of singing and salvation, [Is] in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly. 16.

Jah hath sorely chastened me, And to death hath not given me up. 19. Open ye to me gates of righteousness, I enter into them, I thank Jah. 20. This [is] the gate to Jehovah, The righteous enter into it. 21. I thank Thee, for Thou hast answered me, And art to me for salvation. 22. A stone the builders refused Hath become head of a corner. 23. From Jehovah hath this been, It [is] wonderful in our eyes, 24. This [is] the day Jehovah hath made, We rejoice and are glad in it. 25. I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, save, I pray Thee, I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, prosper, I pray Thee. 26. Blessed [is] he who is coming In the name of Jehovah, We blessed you from the house of Jehovah, 27.

Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is] His kindness! (Psalms 118:1-29, YLT)
