| Chapter 118 |
1 | Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever. |
2 | Oh let Israel say, that his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever. |
3 | Oh let the house of Aaron say, that his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever. |
4 | Oh let them that fear Jehovah say, that his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever. |
5 | I called upon Jah in distress; Jah answered me [and set me] in a large place. |
6 | Jehovah is for me, I will not fear; what can man do unto me? |
7 | Jehovah is for me among them that help me; and I shall see [my desire] upon them that hate me. |
8 | It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in man; |
9 | It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in nobles. |
10 | All nations encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them. |
11 | They encompassed me, yea, encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them. |
12 | They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them. |
13 | Thou hast thrust hard at me that I might fall; but Jehovah helped me. |
14 | My strength and song is Jah, and he is become my salvation. |
15 | The voice of triumph 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 Jah. |
18 | Jah 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; Jah will I praise. |
20 | This is the gate of Jehovah: the righteous shall enter therein. |
21 | I will give thee thanks, for thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation. |
22 | [The] stone which the builders rejected hath become the head of the corner: |
23 | This is of Jehovah; it is wonderful in our eyes. |
24 | This is the day that Jehovah hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. |
25 | Oh save, Jehovah, I beseech thee; Jehovah, I beseech thee, oh send 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 łGod, and he hath given us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, -- up to the horns of the altar. |
28 | Thou art my łGod, and I will give thee thanks; my God, I will exalt thee. |
29 | Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever. |
