The King James Version Bible

Psalms 118:12-20

  1. 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.

  2. Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.

  3. The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.

  4. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

  5. The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

  6. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.

  7. The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.

  8. Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD:

  9. This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
