Psalm 118:10-26
New International Version
10 All the nations surrounded me,
but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.(A)
11 They surrounded me(B) on every side,(C)
but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.
12 They swarmed around me like bees,(D)
but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns;(E)
in the name of the Lord I cut them down.(F)
13 I was pushed back and about to fall,
but the Lord helped me.(G)
14 The Lord is my strength(H) and my defense[a];
he has become my salvation.(I)
15 Shouts of joy(J) and victory
resound in the tents of the righteous:
“The Lord’s right hand(K) has done mighty things!(L)
16 The Lord’s right hand is lifted high;
the Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!”
17 I will not die(M) but live,
and will proclaim(N) what the Lord has done.
18 The Lord has chastened(O) me severely,
but he has not given me over to death.(P)
19 Open for me the gates(Q) of the righteous;
I will enter(R) and give thanks to the Lord.
20 This is the gate of the Lord(S)
through which the righteous may enter.(T)
21 I will give you thanks, for you answered me;(U)
you have become my salvation.(V)
22 The stone(W) the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;(X)
23 the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous(Y) in our eyes.
24 The Lord has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad.(Z)
25 Lord, save us!(AA)
Lord, grant us success!

Psalm 118:10-26
King James Version
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.
