Psalms 118

1 Give praise to Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Give ye thanks to Yahweh—For he is good, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

2 Let Israel now say that he is good: that his mercy endureth for ever.

I pray you! let Israel, say, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.

I pray you! let the house of Aaron, say, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

4 Let them that fear the Lord now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.

I pray you! let them who revere Yahweh, say, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.

5 In my trouble I called upon the Lord: and the Lord heard me, and enlarged me.

Out of a strait, called I on Yah, He answered me with enlargement.

6 The Lord is my helper, I will not fear what man can do unto me.

Yahweh, is on my side, I will not fear, What can man, do unto me?

7 The Lord is my helper: and I will look over my enemies.

Yahweh, is on my side, with them who help me, I, therefore shall gaze upon them who hate me.

8 It is good to confide in the Lord, rather than to have confidence in man.

It is, better to seek refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in man:

9 It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in princes.

It is, better to seek refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in nobles.

10 All nations compassed me about; and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them.

All nations, have compassed me about, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised;

11 Surrounding me they compassed me about: and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them.

They have compassed me about—yea compassed me about, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised;

12 They surrounded me like bees, and they burned like fire among thorns: and in the name of the Lord I was revenged on them.

They have compassed me about like wax bees, they have blazed up like the fire of thorns, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised.

13 Being pushed I was overturned that I might fall: but the Lord supported me.

Thou didst, thrust sore, at me that I might fall, But, Yahweh, hath helped me.

14 The Lord is my strength and my praise: and he is become my salvation.

My might and melody, is Yah, and he hath become mine by salvation.

15 The voice of rejoicing and of salvation is in the tabernacles of the just.

The voice of shouting and salvation, is in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of Yahweh, is doing valiantly:

16 The right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength: the right hand of the Lord hath exulted me: the right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength.

The right hand of Yahweh, is exalted, The right hand of Yahweh, is doing valiantly.

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

I shall not die, but live, That I may recount the doings of Yah.

18 The Lord chastising hath chastised me: but he hath not delivered me over to death.

Yah, chastened me sore, But, unto death, did not deliver me.

19 Open ye to me the gates of justice: I will go into them, and give praise to the Lord.

Open to me the gates of righteousness, I will enter therein, I will give thanks unto Yah.

20 This is the gate of the Lord, the just shall enter into it.

This, is the gate for Yahweh, Such as are righteous, shall enter therein.

21 I will give glory to thee because thou hast heard me: and art become my salvation.

I will thank thee, because thou hast answered me, And hast become mine, by salvation.

22 The stone which the builders rejected; the same is become the head of the corner.

A stone the builders refused, hath become the head of the corner:

23 This is the Lord’s doing: and it is wonderful in our eyes.

From Yahweh, hath this come to pass, The same, is marvellous in our eyes.

24 This is the day which the Lord hath made: let us be glad and rejoice therein.

This is the day, which Yahweh hath made, We will exult, and be glad therein.

25 O Lord, save me: O Lord, give good success.

Ah now, Yahweh, do save, we beseech thee, Ah now, Yahweh, do send success, we beseech thee!

26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name Lord. We have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.

Blessed be he that entereth, In the Name of Yahweh, we have blessed you, out of the house of Yahweh.

27 The Lord is God, and he hath shone upon us. Appoint a solemn day, with shady boughs, even to the horn of the alter.

Yahweh is GOD, and hath shed on us light, —Bind ye the festal sacrifice with cords, Up to the horns of the altar.

28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, and I will exalt thee. I will praise thee, because thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.

My GOD, thou art, and I will thank thee, —My Elohim, I will exalt thee.

29 O praise ye the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

Give ye thanks to Yahweh—For he is good, For, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness.
