Out of a strait, called I on Yah, He answered me with enlargement.
6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do to me?
Yahweh, is on my side, I will not fear, What can man, do unto me?
7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
Yahweh, is on my side, with them who help me, I, therefore shall gaze upon them who hate me.
8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.

10 All nations surrounded me: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.
All nations, have compassed me about, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised;
11 They surrounded me; yea, they surrounded me: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
They have compassed me about—yea compassed me about, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised;
12 They surrounded me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
They have compassed me about like wax bees, they have blazed up like the fire of thorns, In the Name of Yahweh, surely I will make them be circumcised.
13 Thou hast violently thrust at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
Thou didst, thrust sore, at me that I might fall, But, Yahweh, hath helped me.
14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
My might and melody, is Yah, and he hath become mine by salvation.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
I shall not die, but live, That I may recount the doings of Yah.

Yah, chastened me sore, But, unto death, did not deliver me.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter them, and I will praise the LORD:
Open to me the gates of righteousness, I will enter therein, I will give thanks unto Yah.
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
This, is the gate for Yahweh, Such as are righteous, shall enter therein.
21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
I will thank thee, because thou hast answered me, And hast become mine, by salvation.
