BBE - Psalms - 118

118:1  O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

118:2  Let Israel now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

118:3  Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

118:4  Let all worshippers of the Lord now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.

118:5  I made my prayer to the Lord in my trouble: and the Lord gave me an answer, and put me in a wide place.

118:6  The Lord is on my side; I will have no fear: what is man able to do to me?

118:7  The Lord is my great helper: I will see my desire against my haters.

118:8  It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in man.

118:9  It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in rulers.

118:10  All the nations have come round me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.

118:11  They are round me, yes, they are all about me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.

118:12  They are round me like bees; but they are put out like a fire among thorns; for in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.

118:13  I have been hard pushed by you, so that I might have a fall: but the Lord was my helper.

118:14  The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.

118:15  The sound of joy and salvation is in the tents of the upright; the right hand of the Lord does works of power.

118:16  The right hand of the Lord is lifted up; the right hand of the Lord does works of power.

118:17  Life and not death will be my part, and I will give out the story of the works of the Lord.

118:18  The hand of Jah has been hard on me; but he has not given me up to death.

118:19  Let the doors of righteousness be open to me; I will go in and give praise to the Lord.

118:20  This is the door of the Lord's house; the workers of righteousness will go in through it.

118:21  I will give you praise, for you have given me an answer, and have become my salvation.

118:22  The stone which the builders put on one side has become the chief stone of the building.

118:23  This is the Lord's doing; it is a wonder in our eyes.

118:24  This is the day which the Lord has made; we will be full of joy and delight in it.

118:25  Send salvation now, O Lord; Lord, send us your blessing.

118:26  A blessing be on him who comes in the name of the Lord; we give you blessing from the house of the Lord.

118:27  The Lord is God, and he has given us light; let the holy dance be ordered with branches, even up to the horns of the altar.

118:28  You are my God, and I will give you praise; my God, and I will give honour to your name.

118:29  O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
