[1] Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good,
for his loving kindness endures forever.
[2] Let Israel now say
that his loving kindness endures forever.
[3] Let the house of Aaron now say
that his loving kindness endures forever.
[4] Now let those who fear Yahweh say
that his loving kindness endures forever.
[5] Out of my distress, I called on Yah.
Yah answered me with freedom.
[6] Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?
[7] Yahweh is on my side among those who help me.
Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me.
[8] It is better to take refuge in Yahweh,
than to put confidence in man.
[9] It is better to take refuge in Yahweh,
than to put confidence in princes.
[10] All the nations surrounded me,
but in Yahweh’s name I cut them off.
[11] They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me.
In Yahweh’s name I indeed cut them off.
[12] They surrounded me like bees.
They are quenched like the burning thorns.
In Yahweh’s name I cut them off.
[13] You pushed me back hard, to make me fall,
but Yahweh helped me.
[14] Yah is my strength and song.
He has become my salvation.
[15] The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous.
“The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly.
[16] The right hand of Yahweh is exalted!
The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly!”
[17] I will not die, but live,
and declare Yah’s works.
[18] Yah has punished me severely,
but he has not given me over to death.
[19] Open to me the gates of righteousness.
I will enter into them.
I will give thanks to Yah.
[20] This is the gate of Yahweh;
the righteous will enter into it.
[21] I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me,
and have become my salvation.
[22] The stone which the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.§
[23] This is Yahweh’s doing.
It is marvelous in our eyes.
[24] This is the day that Yahweh has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it!
[25] Save us now, we beg you, Yahweh!
Yahweh, we beg you, send prosperity now.
[26] Blessed is he who comes in Yahweh’s name!
We have blessed you out of Yahweh’s house.
[27] Yahweh is God, and he has given us light.
Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.
[28] You are my God, and I will give thanks to you.
You are my God, I will exalt you.
[29] Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good,
for his loving kindness endures forever.

[1] O give thanksH3034(HiphImpv) unto the Lord;H3068 for [he is] good:H2896 because his mercyH2617 [endureth] for ever.H5769 [2] Let IsraelH3478 now say,H559(QalImpf) that his mercyH2617 [endureth] for ever.H5769 [3] Let the houseH1004 of AaronH175 now say,H559(QalImpf) that his mercyH2617 [endureth] for ever.H5769 [4] Let them now that fearH3373 the LordH3068 say,H559(QalImpf) that his mercyH2617 [endureth] for ever.H5769 [5] I calledH7121(QalPerf) upon the LordH3050 in distress:H4712 the LordH3050 answeredH6030(QalPerf) me, [and set me] in a large place.H4800 [6] The LordH3068 [is] on my side; I will not fear:H3372(QalImpf) what canH6213 manH120 doH6213(QalImpf) unto me? [7] The LordH3068 taketh my part with them that helpH5826(QalActPtc) me: therefore shall I seeH7200(QalImpf) [my desire] upon them that hateH8130(QalActPtc) me. [8] [It is] betterH2896 to trustH2620(QalInf) in the LordH3068 than to put confidenceH982(QalInf) in man.H120 [9] [It is] betterH2896 to trustH2620(QalInf) in the LordH3068 than to put confidenceH982(QalInf) in princes.H5081 [10] All nationsH1471 compassed me about:H5437(QalPerf) but in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 will I destroyH4135(HiphImpf) them. [11] They compassed me about;H5437(QalPerf) yea, they compassed me about:H5437(QalPerf) but in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 I will destroyH4135(HiphImpf) them. [12] They compassed me aboutH5437(QalPerf) like bees;H1682 they are quenchedH1846(PualPerf) as the fireH784 of thorns:H6975 for in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 I will destroyH4135(HiphImpf) them. [13] Thou hast thrustH1760(QalPerf) soreH1760(QalInf) at me that I might fall:H5307(QalInf) but the LordH3068 helpedH5826(QalPerf) me. [14] The LordH3050 [is] my strengthH5797 and song,H2176 and is become my salvation.H3444 [15] The voiceH6963 of rejoicingH7440 and salvationH3444 [is] in the tabernaclesH168 of the righteous:H6662 the right handH3225 of the LordH3068 doethH6213(QalActPtc) valiantly.H2428 [16] The right handH3225 of the LordH3068 is exalted:H7426(QalActPtc) the right handH3225 of the LordH3068 doethH6213(QalActPtc) valiantly.H2428 [17] I shall not die,H4191(QalImpf) but live,H2421(QalImpf) and declareH5608(PielImpf) the worksH4639 of the Lord.H3050 [18] The LordH3050 hath chastenedH3256(PielPerf) me sore:H3256(PielInf) but he hath not given me overH5414(QalPerf) unto death.H4194 [19] OpenH6605(QalImpv) to me the gatesH8179 of righteousness:H6664 I will goH935(QalImpf) into them, [and] I will praiseH3034(HiphImpf) the Lord:H3050 [20] This gateH8179 of the Lord,H3068 into which the righteousH6662 shall enter.H935(QalImpf) [21] I will praiseH3034(HiphImpf) thee: for thou hast heardH6030(QalPerf) me, and art become my salvation.H3444 [22] The stoneH68 [which] the buildersH1129(QalActPtc) refusedH3988(QalPerf) is become the headH7218 [stone] of the corner.H6438 [23] This is the Lord’sH3068 doing; it [is] marvellousH6381(NiphPerf) in our eyes.H5869 [24] This [is] the dayH3117 [which] the LordH3068 hath made;H6213(QalPerf) we will rejoiceH1523(QalImpf) and be gladH8055(QalImpf) in it. [25] SaveH3467(HiphImpv) now, I beseechH577 thee, O Lord:H3068 O Lord,H3068 I beseechH577 thee, send now prosperity.H6743(HiphImpv) [26] BlessedH1288(QalPasPtc) [be] he that comethH935(QalActPtc) in the nameH8034 of the Lord:H3068 we have blessedH1288(PielPerf) you out of the houseH1004 of the Lord.H3068 [27] GodH410 [is] the Lord,H3068 which hath shewed us light:H215(HiphImpf) bindH631(QalImpv) the sacrificeH2282 with cords,H5688 [even] unto the hornsH7161 of the altar.H4196 [28] Thou [art] my God,H410 and I will praiseH3034(HiphImpf) thee: [thou art] my God,H430 I will exaltH7311(PoleImpf) thee. [29] O give thanksH3034(HiphImpv) unto the Lord;H3068 for [he is] good:H2896 for his mercyH2617 [endureth] for ever.H5769
