LEB - Psalms - 118

118:1  Give thanks to Yahweh for he is good, for his loyal love is forever.

118:2  Let Israel say, “His loyal love is forever.”

118:3  Let the house of Aaron say, “His loyal love is forever.”

118:4  Let those who fear Yahweh say, “His loyal love is forever.”

118:5  Out of my distress I called to Yah. Yah answered me, setting me in a broad place.

118:6  Yahweh is for me; I do not fear. What can mere humans do to me?

118:7  Yahweh is for me as my helper, and so I will look in triumph on those who hate me.

118:8  It is better to take refuge in Yahweh than to trust in humans.

118:9  It is better to take refuge in Yahweh than to trust princes.

118:10  All nations surrounded me. In the name of Yahweh I opposed them indeed.

118:11  They surrounded me; yes, they surrounded me. In the name of Yahweh I opposed them indeed.

118:12  They surrounded me like bees; they were extinguished like a fire of thorns. In the name of Yahweh I opposed them indeed.

118:13  You pushed me hard to make me fall, but Yahweh helped me.

118:14  Yah is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.

118:15  The sound of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of Yahweh has done valiantly.

118:16  The right hand of Yahweh has exalted; the right hand of Yahweh has done valiantly.

118:17  I will not die but live, and tell of the works of Yah.

118:18  Yah has disciplined me severely, but he did not consign me to death.

118:19  Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter through them and give thanks to Yah.

118:20  This is the gate of Yahweh, through which the righteous will enter.

118:21  I will give thanks to you for you have answered me, and you have become my salvation.

118:22  The stone the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.

118:23  This is from Yahweh; it is wonderful in our eyes.

118:24  This is the day Yahweh has worked; let us rejoice and be glad in him.

118:25  O Yahweh, please save; O Yahweh, please grant success.

118:26  Blessed is he who comes in the name of Yahweh. We bless you from the house of Yahweh.

118:27  Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

118:28  You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God; I will exalt you.

118:29  Give thanks to Yahweh for he is good, for his loyal love is forever.
