Tehillim 118:12-20 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

12. They compassed me about like devorim (bees); they are extinguished like the eish of kotzim (thorns); for in the Shem Hashem I will cut them off.

13. Thou hast hard pushed at me that I fell; but Hashem helped me.

14. Hashem is my oz (strength) and zimrah (song), and He is become my Yeshuah (salvation).

15. The voice of rejoicing and Yeshuah (salvation) is in the ohalim of the tzaddikim; the Yamin Hashem doeth valiantly.

16. The Yamin Hashem is exalted; the Yamin Hashem doeth valiantly.

17. I shall not die, but live, and declare the ma'asim (works) of Hashem.

18. Hashem hath hard chastened me severely; but He hath not given me over unto mavet (death).

19. Open to me the sha'arei tzedek; I will go through them, and I will praise Hashem;

20. This is the sha'ar of Hashem, into which the tzaddikim shall enter.
