JPS - Psalms - 118

118:1  'O give thanks unto HaShem, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.

118:2  So let Israel now say, for His mercy endureth for ever,

118:3  So let the house of Aaron now say, for His mercy endureth for ever.

118:4  So let them now that fear HaShem say, for His mercy endureth for ever.

118:5  Out of my straits I called upon HaShem; He answered me with great enlargement.

118:6  HaShem is for me; I will not fear; what can man do unto me?

118:7  HaShem is for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me.

118:8  It is better to take refuge in HaShem than to trust in man.

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

118:10  All nations compass me about; verily, in the name of HaShem I will cut them off.

118:11  They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; verily, in the name of HaShem I will cut them off.

118:12  They compass me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns; verily, in the name of HaShem I will cut them off.

118:13  Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; but HaShem helped me.

118:14  HaShem is my strength and song; and He is become my salvation.

118:15  The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of HaShem doeth valiantly.

118:16  The right hand of HaShem is exalted; the right hand of HaShem doeth valiantly.

118:17  I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of HaShem.

118:18  HaShem hath chastened me sore; but He hath not given me over unto death.

118:19  Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto HaShem.

118:20  This is the gate of HaShem; the righteous shall enter into it.

118:21  I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation.

118:22  The stone which the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone.

118:23  This is HaShem'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.

118:24  This is the day which HaShem hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

118:25  We beseech Thee, O HaShem, save now! We beseech Thee, O HaShem, make us now to prosper!

118:26  Blessed be he that cometh in the name of HaShem; we bless you out of the house of HaShem.

118:27  HaShem is G-d, and hath given us light; order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar.

118:28  Thou art my G-d, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my G-d, I will exalt Thee.

118:29  O give thanks unto HaShem, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.
