1 |
Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age [is] His kindness. --
|
2 |
I pray you, let Israel say, That, to the age [is] His kindness. --
|
3 |
I pray you, let the house of Aaron say, That, to the age [is] His kindness. --
|
4 |
I pray you, let those fearing Jehovah say, That, to the age [is] His kindness. --
|
5 |
From the straitness I called Jah, Jah answered me in a broad place. --
|
6 |
Jehovah [is] for me, I do not fear what man doth to me. --
|
7 |
Jehovah [is] for me among my helpers, And I -- I look on those hating me. --
|
8 |
Better to take refuge in Jehovah than to trust in man, --
|
9 |
Better to take refuge in Jehovah, Than to trust in princes. --
|
10 |
All nations have compassed me about, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off. --
|
11 |
They have compassed me about, Yea, they have compassed me about, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off. --
|
12 |
They compassed me about as bees, They have been extinguished as a fire of thorns, In the name of Jehovah I surely cut them off. --
|
13 |
Thou hast sorely thrust me to fall, And Jehovah hath helped me. --
|
14 |
My strength and song [is] Jah, And He is to me for salvation. --
|
15 |
A voice of singing and salvation, [Is] in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly. --
|
16 |
The right hand of Jehovah is exalted, The right hand of Jehovah is doing valiantly. --
|
17 |
I do not die, but live, And recount the works of Jah, --
|
18 |
Jah hath sorely chastened me, And to death hath not given me up. --
|
19 |
Open ye to me gates of righteousness, I enter into them -- I thank Jah. --
|
20 |
This [is] the gate to Jehovah, The righteous enter into it. --
|
21 |
I thank Thee, for Thou hast answered me, And art to me for salvation. --
|
22 |
A stone the builders refused Hath become head of a corner. --
|
23 |
From Jehovah hath this been, It [is] wonderful in our eyes, --
|
24 |
This [is] the day Jehovah hath made, We rejoice and are glad in it. --
|
25 |
I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, save, I pray Thee, I beseech Thee, O Jehovah, prosper, I pray Thee. --
|
26 |
Blessed [is] he who is coming In the name of Jehovah, We blessed you from the house of Jehovah, --
|
27 |
God [is] Jehovah, and He giveth to us light, Direct ye the festal-sacrifice with cords, Unto the horns of the altar. --
|
28 |
My God Thou [art], and I confess Thee, My God, I exalt Thee. --
|
29 |
Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is] His kindness! --
