Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, For his lovingkindness endures forever. |
2
|
Let Israel now say That his lovingkindness endures forever. |
3
|
Let the house of Aaron now say That his lovingkindness endures forever. |
4
|
Now let those who fear Yahweh say That his lovingkindness endures forever. |
5
|
Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom. |
6
|
Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? |
7
|
Yahweh is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me. |
8
|
It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, Than to put confidence in man. |
9
|
It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, Than to put confidence in princes. |
10
|
All the nations surrounded me, But in the name of Yahweh, I cut them off. |
11
|
They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In the name of Yahweh I indeed cut them off. |
12
|
They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In the name of Yahweh I cut them off. |
13
|
You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, But Yahweh helped me. |
14
|
Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. |
15
|
The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. 'The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly. |
16
|
The right hand of Yahweh is exalted! The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly!' |
17
|
I will not die, but live, And declare Yah's works. |
18
|
Yah has punished me severely, But he has not given me over to death. |
19
|
Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to Yah. |
20
|
This is the gate of Yahweh; The righteous will enter into it. |
21
|
I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, And have become my salvation. |
22
|
The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. |
23
|
This is Yahweh's doing. It is marvelous in our eyes. |
24
|
This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it! |
25
|
Save us now, we beg you, Yahweh; Yahweh, we beg you, now send prosperity. |
26
|
Blessed is he who comes in the name of Yahweh! We have blessed you out of the house of Yahweh. |
27
|
Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar. |
28
|
You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you. |
29
|
Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, For his lovingkindness endures forever. Psalm 119 ALEPH |
