Psalm 118

¹Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

²Oh let Israel say, that his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

³Oh let the house of Aaron say, that his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

⁴Oh let them that fear Jehovah say, that his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

⁵I called upon Jah in distress; Jah answered me [and set me] in a large place.

⁶Jehovah is for me, I will not fear; what can man do unto me?

⁷Jehovah is for me among them that help me; and I shall see [my desire] upon them that hate me.

⁸It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in man;

⁹It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in nobles.

¹⁰All nations encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.

¹¹They encompassed me, yea, encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.

¹²They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.

¹³Thou hast thrust hard at me that I might fall; but Jehovah helped me.

¹⁴My strength and song is Jah, and he is become my salvation.

¹⁵The voice of triumph and salvation is in the tents of the righteous: the right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly;
