PSALM 118

The Mercy of The LORD is unto the Eon

Alleluiah

1 Make acknowledgment to the lord, for he is good, for into the eon is his mercy! 2 Say indeed, O house of Israel, that he is good, for into the eon is his mercy! 3 Say indeed, O house of Aaron, that he is good, for into the eon is his mercy! 4 Say indeed, all the ones fearing the lord, that he is good, for into the eon is his mercy! 5 From out of affliction I called upon the lord, and he heeded me in an enlargement. 6 The lord to me is a helper; and I shall not fear what [²shall do ³to me ¹man]. 7 The lord to me is a helper, and I will scrutinize my enemies. 8 It is good to yield unto the lord, than to yield unto man. 9 It is good to hope upon the lord, than to hope upon rulers. 10 All the nations encircled me, and in the name of the lord I repulsed them. 11 In encircling, they encircled me; and in the name of the lord I repulsed them. 12 They encircled me as bees at a honeycomb; and they burned away as fire among thorn-bushes; and in the name of the lord I repulsed them. 13 Being thrust through, I was prostrated to fall, and the lord took hold of me. 14 [³is my strength ⁴and ⁵my singing of praise ¹The ² lord]; and he became to me for deliverance; 15 a voice of exultation and deliverance in the tents of the just. The right hand of the lord acted in power. 16 The right hand of the lord exalted me. The right hand of the lord acted in power. 17 I shall not die, but I shall live; and I shall describe the works of the lord. 18 In correcting, [³corrected ⁴me ¹the ² lord]; and [³to ⁴death ¹he shall not ²deliver me]. 19 Open to me the gates of righteousness, and entering in them I shall confess to the lord. 20 This is the gate of the lord; the just shall enter in it. 21 I shall confess to you, for you took heed of me, and you became for me as deliverance. 22 The stone which [³rejected ¹the ²builders], this one became for the head of the corner. 23 [²by ³the lord ¹This happened], and it is wonderful in our eyes. 24 This is the day which [³made ¹the ² lord], we shall exult and be glad in it. 25 O lord, deliver indeed! O lord, prosper the way indeed! 26 Being blessed is the one coming in the name of the lord. We blessed you from out of the house of the lord. 27 God is the lord, and he shined upon us. Stand together for a holiday with the ones making dense the victims unto the horns of the altar. 28 [²my God ¹You are], and I shall confess to you. [²my God ¹You are], and I will exalt you. I will confess to you, for you took heed of me; and you became to me for deliverance. 29 I will confess to the lord, for he is good, for into the eon is his mercy.
