KJV Psalms Chapter 118
1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for |he is| good: because his mercy |endureth| for ever. 2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy |endureth| for ever. 3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy |endureth| for ever. 4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy |endureth| for ever. 5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, |and set me| in a large place. 6 The LORD |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. 8 |It is| better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. 9 |It is| better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. 10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. 11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 12 They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 13 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. 14 The LORD |is| my strength and song, and is become my salvation. 15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation |is| in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. 18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. 19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, |and| I will praise the LORD: 20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. 21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. 22 The stone |which| the builders refused is become the head |stone| of the corner. 23 This is the LORD'S doing; it |is| marvellous in our eyes. 24 This |is| the day |which| the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity. 26 Blessed |be| he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD. 27 God |is| the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, |even| unto the horns of the altar. 28 Thou |art| my God, and I will praise thee: |thou art| my God, I will exalt thee. 29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for |he is| good: for his mercy |endureth| for ever.
