Psalm 118:5–16
5 dI called upon the eLord †in fdistress:
The eLord answered me, and gset me in ha large place.
6 iThe Lord is †on my side; jI will not fear:
What can man do unto me?
7 kThe Lord taketh my part with them that help me:
Therefore shall lI see my desire upon them that hate me.
8 It is better to mtrust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in man.
9 It is better to mtrust in the Lord
Than to put confidence in nprinces.
10 All nations ocompassed me about:
But in the name of the Lord will I †destroy them.
11 oThey compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about:
But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.
12 oThey compassed me about plike bees;
They are quenched qas the fire of thorns:
For in the name of the Lord I will †destroy them.
13 Thou hast rthrust sore at me that I might fall:
But the Lord helped me.
14 The seLord is my strength and song,
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous:
uThe right hand of the Lord vdoeth valiantly.
