Tahalym (Psalm) — 118

1 Give thanks to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, for he is good! His merciful love endures forever.

2 Let all Yashar'AL repeat: “His merciful love endures forever.”

3 Let Aarun’s descendants, the Kuhanym, repeat: “His merciful love endures forever.”

4 Let all who fear 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH repeat: His merciful love endures forever.”

5 In my distress I prayed to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH answered me and set me free.

6 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is on my side, so I will have no fear. What can mere man do to me?

7 Yes, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is for me; He will help me. I will look in triumph at those who hate me.

8 It is better to take refuge in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH than to trust in people.

9 It is better to take refuge in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH than to trust in princes.

10 Though hostile nations surrounded me, I destroyed them all with the authority of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.

11 Yes, they surrounded and attacked me,    but I destroyed them all with the authority of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.

12 They swarmed around me like bees; they blazed against me like a crackling fire. But I destroyed them all with the authority of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.

13 My enemies did their best to kill me, but 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH rescued me.

14 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is my strength and my song; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has given me victory.

15 Songs of joy and victory are sung in the camp of the righteous. The strong right arm of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has done awesome things!

16 The strong right arm of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is raised in triumph. The strong right arm of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has done awesome things!

17 I will not die; instead, I will live to tell what 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has done.

18 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has punished me severely, but He did not let me die.

19 Open for me the gates where the righteous enter, and I will go in and give Tudah (thank) to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.

20 These gates lead to the presence of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, and the righteous enter there.

21 I thank You for answering my prayer and giving me victory!

22 The stone that the builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.

23 This is 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH’s doing, and it is wonderful to see.

24 This is the day 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.

25 Please 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, please save us. Please 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, please give us success.

26 Barak is the one who comes in the name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH. We Barak you from the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH.

27 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH our 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, is shining upon us. Take the sacrifice and bind it with cords on the altar.

28 For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH is my 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, and I will Yadah 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH! my 𐤀𐤋𐤅𐤄_ALUAH, and I will exalt you! O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH!

29 Give Tudah (thanks) to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH, for He is good! His merciful love endures forever.
