Psalms 118:5-18
5From my 1distress I called upon 2the Lord; 3The Lord answered me and 4set me in a large place.6The Lord is 5for me; I will 6not fear; 7What can man do to me?7The Lord is for me 8among those who help me; Therefore I will 9look with satisfaction on those who hate me.8It is 10better to take refuge in the Lord Than to trust in man.9It is 11better to take refuge in the Lord Than to trust in princes.
10All nations 12surrounded me; In the name of the Lord I will surely 13cut them off.11They 14surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me; In the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off.12They surrounded me 15like bees; They were extinguished as a 16fire of thorns; In the name of the Lord I will surely cut them off.13You 17pushed me violently so that I 18was falling, But the Lord 19helped me.142021The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become 22my salvation.
15The sound of 23joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The 24right hand of the Lord does valiantly.16The 25right hand of the Lord is exalted; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.17I 26will not die, but live, And 27tell of the works of 28the Lord.1829The Lord has 30disciplined me severely, But He has 31not given me over to death.
