Psalms 118
1 Give thanks to YHWH, For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time.
| הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי־טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ |
2 Now let Israel say, His kindness [is] for all time.
| יֹֽאמַר־נָא יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ |
3 Now let the house of Aaron say, His kindness [is] for all time.
| יֹֽאמְרוּ־נָא בֵֽית־אַהֲרֹן כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ |
4 Now let those fearing YHWH say, His kindness [is] for all time.
| יֹֽאמְרוּ־נָא יִרְאֵי יְהוָה כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ |
5 I called YAH from the narrow place, YAH answered me in a broad place.
| מִֽן־הַמֵּצַר קָרָאתִי יָּהּ עָנָנִי בַמֶּרְחָב יָֽהּ׃ |
6 YHWH [is] for me, I do not fear what man does to me.
| יְהוָה לִי לֹא אִירָא מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה לִי אָדָֽם׃ |
7 YHWH [is] for me among my helpers, And I look on those hating me.
| יְהוָה לִי בְּעֹזְרָי וַאֲנִי אֶרְאֶה בְשֹׂנְאָֽי׃ |
8 Better to take refuge in YHWH, Than to trust in man,
| טוֹב לַחֲסוֹת בַּיהוָה מִבְּטֹחַ בָּאָדָֽם׃ |
9 Better to take refuge in YHWH, Than to trust in princes.
| טוֹב לַחֲסוֹת בַּיהוָה מִבְּטֹחַ בִּנְדִיבִֽים׃ |
10 All nations have surrounded me, In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off.
| כָּל־גּוֹיִם סְבָבוּנִי בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה כִּי אֲמִילַֽם׃ |
11 They have surrounded me, Indeed, they have surrounded me, In the Name of YHWH I surely cut them off.
| סַבּוּנִי גַם־סְבָבוּנִי בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה כִּי אֲמִילַֽם׃ |
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.
| סַבּוּנִי כִדְבוֹרִים דֹּעֲכוּ כְּאֵשׁ קוֹצִים בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה כִּי אֲמִילַֽם׃ |
13 You have severely thrust me to fall, And YHWH has helped me.
| דַּחֹה דְחִיתַנִי לִנְפֹּל וַיהוָה עֲזָרָֽנִי׃ |
14 YAH is my strength and song, And He is to me for salvation.
| עָזִּי וְזִמְרָת יָהּ וַֽיְהִי־לִי לִֽישׁוּעָֽה׃ |
15 A voice of singing and salvation, [Is] in the tents of the righteous, The right hand of YHWH is doing valiantly.
| קוֹל ׀ רִנָּה וִֽישׁוּעָה בְּאָהֳלֵי צַדִּיקִים יְמִין יְהוָה עֹשָׂה חָֽיִל׃ |
16 The right hand of YHWH is exalted, The right hand of YHWH is doing valiantly.
| יְמִין יְהוָה רוֹמֵמָה יְמִין יְהוָה עֹשָׂה חָֽיִל׃ |
17 I do not die, but live, And recount the works of YAH,
| לֹֽא אָמוּת כִּי־אֶֽחְיֶה וַאֲסַפֵּר מַֽעֲשֵׂי יָֽהּ׃ |
18 YAH has severely disciplined me, And has not given me up to death.
| יַסֹּר יִסְּרַנִּי יָּהּ וְלַמָּוֶת לֹא נְתָנָֽנִי׃ |
19 Open gates of righteousness to me, I enter into them—I thank YAH.
| פִּתְחוּ־לִי שַׁעֲרֵי־צֶדֶק אָֽבֹא־בָם אוֹדֶה יָֽהּ׃ |
20 This [is] the gate to YHWH, The righteous enter into it.
| זֶֽה־הַשַּׁעַר לַיהוָה צַדִּיקִים יָבֹאוּ בֽוֹ׃ |
21 I thank You, for You have answered me, And are to me for salvation.
| אוֹדְךָ כִּי עֲנִיתָנִי וַתְּהִי־לִי לִֽישׁוּעָֽה׃ |
22 A stone the builders refused Has become head of a corner.
| אֶבֶן מָאֲסוּ הַבּוֹנִים הָיְתָה לְרֹאשׁ פִּנָּֽה׃ |
23 This has been from YHWH, It [is] wonderful in our eyes,
| מֵאֵת יְהוָה הָיְתָה זֹּאת הִיא נִפְלָאת בְּעֵינֵֽינוּ׃ |
24 This [is] the day YHWH has made, We rejoice and are glad in it.
| זֶה־הַיּוֹם עָשָׂה יְהוָה נָגִילָה וְנִשְׂמְחָה בֽוֹ׃ |
25 Ah, now, O YHWH, please save, Ah, now, O YHWH, please prosper.
| אָנָּא יְהוָה הוֹשִׁיעָה נָּא אָֽנָּא יְהוָה הַצְלִיחָה נָּֽא׃ |
26 Blessed [is] He who is coming In the Name of YHWH, We blessed you from the house of YHWH,
| בָּרוּךְ הַבָּא בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה בֵּרַֽכְנוּכֶם מִבֵּית יְהוָֽה׃ |
27 God [is] YHWH, and He gives light to us, Direct the festal-sacrifice with cords, To the horns of the altar.
| אֵל ׀ יְהוָה וַיָּאֶר לָנוּ אִסְרוּ־חַג בַּעֲבֹתִים עַד־קַרְנוֹת הַמִּזְבֵּֽחַ׃ |
28 You [are] my God, and I confess You, My God, I exalt You.
| אֵלִי אַתָּה וְאוֹדֶךָּ אֱלֹהַי אֲרוֹמְמֶֽךָּ׃ |
29 Give thanks to YHWH, For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time!
| הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי־טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ |
