Psalms - Chapter 118

¹ Alleluia! Give thanks to Yahweh for he is good, for his faithful love endures for ever.

² Let the House of Israel say, 'His faithful love endures for ever.'

³ Let the House of Aaron say, 'His faithful love endures for ever.'

⁴ Let those who fear Yahweh say, 'His faithful love endures for ever.'

⁵ In my distress I called to Yahweh, he heard me and brought me relief.

⁶ With Yahweh on my side I fear nothing; what can human beings do to me?

⁷ With Yahweh on my side as my help, I gloat over my enemies.

⁸ It is better to take refuge in Yahweh than to rely on human beings;

⁹ better to take refuge in Yahweh than to rely on princes.

¹⁰ Nations were swarming around me, in the name of Yahweh I cut them down;

¹¹ they swarmed around me, pressing upon me, in the name of Yahweh I cut them down.

¹² They swarmed around me like bees, they flared up like a brushwood fire, in the name of Yahweh I cut them down.

¹³ I was pushed hard, to make me fall, but Yahweh came to my help.

¹⁴ Yahweh is my strength and my song, he has been my Saviour.

¹⁵ Shouts of joy and salvation, in the tents of the upright, 'Yahweh's right hand is triumphant,

¹⁶ Yahweh's right hand is victorious, Yahweh's right hand is triumphant!'

¹⁷ I shall not die, I shall live to recount the great deeds of Yahweh.

¹⁸ Though Yahweh punished me sternly, he has not abandoned me to death.

¹⁹ Open for me the gates of saving justice, I shall go in and thank Yahweh.

²⁰ This is the gate of Yahweh, where the upright go in.

²¹ I thank you for hearing me, and making yourself my Saviour.

²² The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;

²³ This is Yahweh's doing, and we marvel at it.

²⁴ This is the day which Yahweh has made, a day for us to rejoice and be glad.

²⁵ We beg you, Yahweh, save us, we beg you, Yahweh, give us victory!

²⁶ Blessed in the name of Yahweh is he who is coming! We bless you from the house of Yahweh.

²⁷ Yahweh is God, he gives us light. Link your processions, branches in hand, up to the horns of the altar.

²⁸ You are my God, I thank you, all praise to you, my God. I thank you for hearing me, and making yourself my Saviour.

²⁹ Give thanks to Yahweh for he is good, for his faithful love endures for ever.
