Give thanks to YHWH, || For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time. Now let Israel say, || His kindness [is] for all time. Now let the house of Aaron say, || His kindness [is] for all time. Now let those fearing YHWH say, || His kindness [is] for all time. I called YAH from the narrow place, || YAH answered me in a broad place. YHWH [is] for me, || I do not fear what man does to me. YHWH [is] for me among my helpers, || And I look on those hating me. Better to take refuge in YHWH, || Than to trust in man, Better to take refuge in YHWH, || Than to trust in princes. 10 All nations have surrounded me, || In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off. 11 They have surrounded me, || Indeed, they have surrounded me, || In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off. 12 They surrounded me as bees, || They have been extinguished as a fire of thorns, || In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off. 13 You have severely thrust me to fall, || And YHWH has helped me. 14 YAH is my strength and song, || And He is to me for salvation. 15 A voice of singing and salvation, || [Is] in the tents of the righteous, || The right hand of YHWH is doing valiantly. 16 The right hand of YHWH is exalted, || The right hand of YHWH is doing valiantly. 17 I do not die, but live, || And recount the works of YAH, 18 YAH has severely disciplined me, || And has not given me up to death. 19 Open gates of righteousness to me, || I enter into them—I thank YAH. 20 This [is] the gate to YHWH, || The righteous enter into it. 21 I thank You, for You have answered me, || And are to me for salvation. 22 A stone the builders refused || Has become head of a corner. 23 This has been from YHWH, || It [is] wonderful in our eyes, 24 This [is] the day YHWH has made, || We rejoice and are glad in it. 25 Ah, now, O YHWH, please save, || Ah, now, O YHWH, please prosper. 26 Blessed [is] He who is coming || In the Name of YHWH, || We blessed you from the house of YHWH, 27 God [is] YHWH, and He gives light to us, || Direct the festal-sacrifice with cords, || To the horns of the altar. 28 You [are] my God, and I confess You, || My God, I exalt You. 29 Give thanks to YHWH, || For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time!
