< Psalms 118 >

1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: because his mercy [endureth] for ever.
הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי־טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃
2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.
יֹֽאמַר־נָא יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃
3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.
יֹֽאמְרוּ־נָא בֵֽית־אַהֲרֹן כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃
4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.
יֹֽאמְרוּ־נָא יִרְאֵי יְהוָה כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃
5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, [and set me] in a large place.
מִֽן־הַמֵּצַר קָרָאתִי יָּהּ עָנָנִי בַמֶּרְחָב יָֽהּ׃
6 The LORD [is] on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
יְהוָה לִי לֹא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה לִי אָדָֽם׃
7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see [my desire] upon them that hate me.
יְהוָה לִי בְּעֹזְרָי וַאֲנִי אֶרְאֶה בְשֹׂנְאָֽי׃
8 [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
טוֹב לַחֲסוֹת בַּיהוָה מִבְּטֹחַ בָּאָדָֽם׃
9 [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
טוֹב לַחֲסוֹת בַּיהוָה מִבְּטֹחַ בִּנְדִיבִֽים׃
10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.
כָּל־גּוֹיִם סְבָבוּנִי בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה כִּי אֲמִילַֽם׃
11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
סַבּוּנִי גַם־סְבָבוּנִי בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה כִּי אֲמִילַֽם׃
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.
סַבּוּנִי כִדְבוֹרִים דֹּעֲכוּ כְּאֵשׁ קוֹצִים בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה כִּי אֲמִילַֽם׃
13 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
דַּחֹה דְחִיתַנִי לִנְפֹּל וַיהוָה עֲזָרָֽנִי׃
14 The LORD [is] my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
עָזִּי וְזִמְרָת יָהּ וַֽיְהִי־לִי לִֽישׁוּעָֽה׃
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation [is] in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
קוֹל ׀ רִנָּה וִֽישׁוּעָה בְּאָהֳלֵי צַדִּיקִים יְמִין יְהוָה עֹשָׂה חָֽיִל׃
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
יְמִין יְהוָה רוֹמֵמָה יְמִין יְהוָה עֹשָׂה חָֽיִל׃
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
לֹֽא אָמוּת כִּי־אֶֽחְיֶה וַאֲסַפֵּר מַֽעֲשֵׂי יָֽהּ׃
18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.
יַסֹּר יִסְּרַנִּי יָּהּ וְלַמָּוֶת לֹא נְתָנָֽנִי׃
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, [and] I will praise the LORD:
פִּתְחוּ־לִי שַׁעֲרֵי־צֶדֶק אָֽבֹא־בָם אוֹדֶה יָֽהּ׃
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
זֶֽה־הַשַּׁעַר לַיהוָה צַדִּיקִים יָבֹאוּ בֽוֹ׃
21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
אוֹדְךָ כִּי עֲנִיתָנִי וַתְּהִי־לִי לִֽישׁוּעָֽה׃
22 The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner.
אֶבֶן מָאֲסוּ הַבּוֹנִים הָיְתָה לְרֹאשׁ פִּנָּֽה׃
23 This is the LORD’s doing; it [is] marvellous in our eyes.
מֵאֵת יְהוָה הָיְתָה זֹּאת הִיא נִפְלָאת בְּעֵינֵֽינוּ׃
24 This [is] the day [which] the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
זֶה־הַיּוֹם עָשָׂה יְהוָה נָגִילָה וְנִשְׂמְחָה בֽוֹ׃
25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
אָנָּא יְהוָה הוֹשִׁיעָה נָּא אָֽנָּא יְהוָה הַצְלִיחָה נָּֽא׃
26 Blessed [be] he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.
בָּרוּךְ הַבָּא בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה בֵּרַֽכְנוּכֶם מִבֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
27 God [is] the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] unto the horns of the altar.
אֵל ׀ יְהוָה וַיָּאֶר לָנוּ אִסְרוּ־חַג בַּעֲבֹתִים עַד־קַרְנוֹת הַמִּזְבֵּֽחַ׃
28 Thou [art] my God, and I will praise thee: [thou art] my God, I will exalt thee.
אֵלִי אַתָּה וְאוֹדֶךָּ אֱלֹהַי אֲרוֹמְמֶֽךָּ׃
29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי־טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃
