118:1  Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

118:2  Oh let Israel say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

118:3  Oh let the house of Aaron say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

118:4  Oh let those who fear the LORD say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

118:5  From {my} distress I called upon the LORD; The LORD answered me {and} {set me} in a large place.

118:6  The LORD is for me; I will not fear; What can man do to me?

118:7  The LORD is for me among those who help me; Therefore I will look {with satisfaction} on those who hate me.

118:8  It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in man.

118:9  It is better to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in princes.

118:10  All nations surrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off.

118:11  They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off.

118:12  They surrounded me like bees; They were extinguished as a fire of thorns; In the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off.

118:13  You pushed me violently so that I was falling, But the LORD helped me.

118:14  The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.

118:15  The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.

118:16  The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.

118:17  I will not die, but live, And tell of the works of the LORD.

118:18  The LORD has disciplined me severely, But He has not given me over to death.

118:19  Open to me the gates of righteousness; I shall enter through them, I shall give thanks to the LORD.

118:20  This is the gate of the LORD; The righteous will enter through it.

118:21  I shall give thanks to You, for You have answered me, And You have become my salvation.

118:22  The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief corner {stone.}

118:23  This is the LORD'S doing; It is marvelous in our eyes.

118:24  This is the day which the LORD has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

118:25  O LORD, do save, we beseech You; O LORD, we beseech You, do send prosperity!

118:26  Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD; We have blessed you from the house of the LORD.

118:27  The LORD is God, and He has given us light; Bind the festival sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

118:28  You are my God, and I give thanks to You; {You are} my God, I extol You.

118:29  Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.
