Psalm
Psalm 118
| 1 |
O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever.
|
| 2 |
Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
|
| 3 |
Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
|
| 4 |
Let them now that fear the Lord say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
|
| 5 |
I called upon the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place.
|
| 6 |
The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
|
| 7 |
The Lord taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
|
| 8 |
It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
|
| 9 |
It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.
|
| 10 |
All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the Lord will I destroy them.
|
| 11 |
They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.
|
| 12 |
They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.
|
| 13 |
Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the Lord helped me.
|
| 14 |
The Lord is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
|
| 15 |
The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.
|
| 16 |
The right hand of the Lord is exalted: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly.
|
| 17 |
I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.
|
| 18 |
The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.
|
| 19 |
Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the Lord:
|
| 20 |
This gate of the Lord, into which the righteous shall enter.
|
| 21 |
I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
|
| 22 |
The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
|
| 23 |
This is the Lord's doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
|
| 24 |
This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
|
| 25 |
Save now, I beseech thee, O Lord: O Lord, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
|
| 26 |
Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord: we have blessed you out of the house of the Lord.
|
| 27 |
God is the Lord, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.
|
| 28 |
Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.
|
| 29 |
O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
