Tehillim 118:1-16 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. O give thanks unto Hashem; for He is tov; Ki l'olam chasdo (for His mercy endureth forever).

2. Let Yisroel now say, Ki l'olam chasdo.

3. Let the Bais Aharon now say, Ki l'olam chasdo.

4. Let them now that fear Hashem say, Ki l'olam chasdo,

5. I called upon Hashem in distress; Hashem answered me, and set me in a broad place.

6. Hashem is on my side; I will not fear; what can adam do unto me?

7. Hashem taketh my part through them that help me; therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.

8. It is better to trust in Hashem than to put confidence in adam.

9. It is better to trust in Hashem than to put confidence in nedivim (nobles).

10. All Goyim surrounded me; but in the Shem Hashem will I cut them off.

11. They surrounded me; yes, they compassed me about; but in the Shem Hashem I will cut them off.

12. They compassed me about like devorim (bees); they are extinguished like the eish of kotzim (thorns); for in the Shem Hashem I will cut them off.

13. Thou hast hard pushed at me that I fell; but Hashem helped me.

14. Hashem is my oz (strength) and zimrah (song), and He is become my Yeshuah (salvation).

15. The voice of rejoicing and Yeshuah (salvation) is in the ohalim of the tzaddikim; the Yamin Hashem doeth valiantly.

16. The Yamin Hashem is exalted; the Yamin Hashem doeth valiantly.
