Psalm 118:6–20

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,

And stis become my salvation.

15  The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous:

uThe right hand of the Lord vdoeth valiantly.

16  The right hand of the Lord is exalted:

uThe right hand of the Lord vdoeth valiantly.

17  I wshall not die, but live,

And xdeclare the works of the eLord.

18  The eLord hath ychastened me sore:

But he hath not given me over unto death.

19  zOpen to me the gates of righteousness:

I will go into them, and I will praise the eLord:

20  This gate of the Lord,

aInto which the righteous shall enter.
