1Tell Yahweh that you thank him very much for the good things that he has done for you He faithfully loves us, his people, forever.

2You Israeli people should repeatedly shout, “He faithfully loves us, his people, forever!”

3You priests who are descendants of Aaron should repeatedly shout, “He faithfully loves us, his people, forever!”

4All you who revere him should repeatedly shout, “He faithfully loves us, his people, forever!”

5When I was distressed, I called out to Yahweh, and he answered me and set me free from my worries/troubles.

6Yahweh is ◄on my side/helping me►, so I will not be afraid of anything.
No one [RHQ] can do anything that will prevent God from blessing me forever.

7Yes, Yahweh is ◄on my side/helping me►, so I will look triumphantly at my enemies while he defeats them.

8It is better to trust in Yahweh than to ◄depend on/trust in► people.

9It is better to trust Yahweh to protect us than to trust that influential/important people will protect us.

10Armies of [MTY] many nations surrounded me, but Yahweh enabled me to defeat them by his power [MTY].

11They completely surrounded me, but I defeated them all by the power of Yahweh.

12They swarmed around me like angry bees; they were like a fire that blazes strongly, but only briefly, in a thornbush,
but I defeated them by the power [MTY] that Yahweh gave me.

13My enemies attacked me fiercely and almost defeated me, but Yahweh helped me.

14Yahweh is the one who makes me strong,
and he is the one about whom I always sing; he has saved me from my enemies.

15Listen to the joyful songs of victory being sung in the tents of godly/righteous people! They sing, “Yahweh has defeated our enemies by his mighty power [MTY];

16he has raised his strong right arm to show he has defeated his enemies. Yahweh has completely defeated them!”

17I will not be killed in battle; I will live to proclaim the great things that Yahweh has done.

18Yahweh has punished me severely, but he has not allowed ◄me to die/my enemies to kill me►.

19You gatekeepers, open for me the gates of the temple in order that I may enter and thank Yahweh.

20Those are the gates through which we enter the temple to worship Yahweh; godly/righteous people enter those gates.

21Yahweh, I thank you that you answered my prayer, and you saved me from my enemies.

22Yahweh’s promised/chosen king is like [MET] the stone which the builders rejected when they were building a house, but that stone became the ◄cornerstone/most important stone in the building►.

23◄This was done by Yahweh/Yahweh has done this►,
and it is a wonderful thing for us to see.

24This is the day in which we remember that Yahweh acted powerfully to defeat our enemies; we will rejoice and be glad/happy today.

25Yahweh, we plead with you to keep rescuing us from our enemies. Yahweh, please help us ◄accomplish/do well► what we want to do.

26Yahweh, bless the one who will come with your authority [MTY]. And from the temple we ◄bless/ask Yahweh to bless► all of you.

27Yahweh is God, and he has caused his light to shine on us. Come, carrying palm branches, and join the people who are starting the festival as they go to the altar.

28Yahweh, you are the God whom I worship, and I will praise you! You are my God, and I will tell everyone that you are great!

29Thank Yahweh, because he does good things for us He will faithfully love us forever.
