| 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. Psalm 119 ALEPH. --
