Psalms 118:10-18 New English Translation (NET)

10. All the nations surrounded me.Indeed, in the name of the Lord I pushed them away.

11. They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me.Indeed, in the name of the Lord I pushed them away.

12. They surrounded me like bees.But they disappeared as quickly as a fire among thorns.Indeed, in the name of the Lord I pushed them away.

13. “You aggressively attacked me and tried to knock me down,but the Lord helped me.

14. The Lord gives me strength and protects me;he has become my deliverer.”

15. They celebrate deliverance in the tents of the godly.The Lord’s right hand conquers,

16. the Lord’s right hand gives victory,the Lord’s right hand conquers.

17. I will not die, but live,and I will proclaim what the Lord has done.

18. The Lord severely punished me,but he did not hand me over to death.
