Chapter 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. |
