Psalms 118:10-26 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

10. All the nations surrounded me.But I defeated them in the name of the Lord.

11. They surrounded me on every side.But with the Lord’s power, I defeated them.

12. They surrounded me like a swarm of bees.But they died as quickly as thorns burn.By the Lord’s power, I defeated them.

13. They chased me until I was almost defeated.But the Lord helped me.

14. The Lord gives me strength and makes me sing.He has saved me.

15. Shouts of joy and victorycome from the tents of those who do right:“The Lord has done powerful things.”

16. The power of the Lord has won the victory.With his power the Lord has done mighty things.

17. I will not die, but live.And I will tell what the Lord has done.

18. The Lord has taught me a hard lesson.But he did not let me die.

19. Open for me the Temple gates.Then I will come in and thank the Lord.

20. This is the Lord’s gate.Only those who are good may enter it.

21. Lord, I thank you for answering me.You have saved me.

22. The stone that the builders did not wantbecame the cornerstone.

23. The Lord did this,and it is wonderful to us.

24. This is the day that the Lord has made.Let us rejoice and be glad today!

25. Please, Lord, save us.Please, Lord, give us success.

26. God bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord.We bless all of you from the Temple of the Lord.
