NASB Bible

Psalms 118

Thanksgiving for the LORD'S Saving Goodness.

1

 aGive thanks to the LORD, for  bHe is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.

2

Oh let  aIsrael say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

3

Oh let the  ahouse of Aaron say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

4

Oh let those  awho  1fear the LORD say, "His lovingkindness is everlasting."

5

From my  adistress I called upon  1the LORD;  1The LORD answered me and  bset me in a large place.

6

The LORD is  afor me; I will  bnot fear;  cWhat can man do to me?

7

The LORD is for me  aamong those who help me; Therefore I will  blook with satisfaction on those who hate me.

8

It is  abetter to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in man.

9

It is  abetter to take refuge in the LORD Than to trust in princes.

10

All nations  asurrounded me; In the name of the LORD I will surely  bcut them off.

11

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

12

They surrounded me  alike bees; They were extinguished as a  bfire of thorns; In the name of the LORD I will surely cut them off.

13

You  apushed me violently so that I  1was falling, But the LORD  bhelped me.

14

 1 aThe LORD is my strength and song, And He has become  bmy salvation.

15

The sound of  ajoyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The  bright hand of the LORD does valiantly.

16

The  aright hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.

17

I  awill not die, but live, And  btell of the works of  1the LORD.

18

 1The LORD has  adisciplined me severely, But He has  bnot given me over to death.

19

 aOpen to me the gates of righteousness; I shall enter through them, I shall give thanks to  1the LORD.

20

This is the gate of the LORD; The  arighteous will enter through it.

21

I shall give thanks to You, for You have  aanswered me, And You have  bbecome my salvation.

22

The  astone which the builders rejected Has become the chief corner stone.

23

This is  1the LORD'S doing; It is marvelous in our eyes.

24

This is the day which the LORD has made; Let us  arejoice and be glad in it.

25

O LORD,  ado save, we beseech You; O LORD, we beseech You, do send  bprosperity!

26

 aBlessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD; We have  bblessed you from the house of the LORD.

27

 aThe LORD is God, and He has given us  blight; Bind the festival sacrifice with cords  1to the  chorns of the altar.

28

 aYou are my God, and I give thanks to You; You are my God,  bI extol You.

29

 aGive thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.
