Psalms 118 WBT

¹ O give thanks to 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.

⁶ The LORD [is] on my side; I will not fear: what can man do to 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 encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.

¹¹ They encompassed me; yes, they encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

¹² They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

¹³ Thou hast violently thrust 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 severely: but he hath not given me over to death.

¹⁹ Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter 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] wonderful in our eyes.

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, who hath shown us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] to 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 to the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
