Psalms 118:9-20 English Revised Version (ERV)

9. It is better to trust in the LORD, than to put confidence in princes.

10. All nations compassed me about: in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

11. They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

12. They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

13. Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.

14. The LORD is my strength and song; and he is become my salvation.

15. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

16. The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

17. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.

18. The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.

19. Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD.

20. This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter into it.
