5 I called YAH from the narrow place, YAH answered me in a broad place.
I called upon Jah in distress; Jah answered me [and set me] in a large place.
6 YHWH [is] for me, I do not fear what man does to me.
Jehovah is for me, I will not fear; what can man do unto me?
7 YHWH [is] for me among my helpers, And I look on those hating me.

8 Better to take refuge in YHWH, Than to trust in man,
It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in man;

It is better to trust in Jehovah than to put confidence in nobles.
10 All nations have surrounded me, In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off.
All nations encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.
11 They have surrounded me, Indeed, they have surrounded me, In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off.
They encompassed me, yea, encompassed me; but in the name of Jehovah have I destroyed them.
12 They surrounded me as bees, They have been extinguished as a fire of thorns, In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off.

13 You have severely thrust me to fall, And YHWH has helped me.
Thou hast thrust hard at me that I might fall; but Jehovah helped me.
14 YAH is my strength and song, And He is to me for salvation.
My strength and song is Jah, and he is become my salvation.
15 A voice of singing and salvation, [Is] in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of YHWH is doing valiantly.

17 I do not die, but live, And recount the works of YAH,
I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of Jah.
18 YAH has severely disciplined me, And has not given me up to death.
Jah hath chastened me sore; but he hath not given me over unto death.
19 Open gates of righteousness to me, I enter into them—I thank YAH.
Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them; Jah will I praise.
20 This [is] the gate to YHWH, The righteous enter into it.
This is the gate of Jehovah: the righteous shall enter therein.
21 I thank You, for You have answered me, And are to me for salvation.
I will give thee thanks, for thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation.
22 A stone the builders refused Has become head of a corner.
[The] stone which the builders rejected hath become the head of the corner:

This is of Jehovah; it is wonderful in our eyes.
24 This [is] the day YHWH has made, We rejoice and are glad in it.
This is the day that Jehovah hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Ah, now, O YHWH, please save, Ah, now, O YHWH, please prosper.
Oh save, Jehovah, I beseech thee; Jehovah, I beseech thee, oh send prosperity!
26 Blessed [is] He who is coming In the Name of YHWH, We blessed you from the house of YHWH,
Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah. We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah.
27 God [is] YHWH, and He gives light to us, Direct the festal-sacrifice with cords, To the horns of the altar.
Jehovah is God, and he hath given us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, — up to the horns of the altar.
28 You [are] my God, and I confess You, My God, I exalt You.
Thou art my God, and I will give thee thanks; my God, I will exalt thee.
29 Give thanks to YHWH, For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time!
Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.
