Psalms 118:12-18 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

12. They swarmed around like bees,but by the power of the Lord,I got rid of themand their fiery sting.

13. Their attacks were so fiercethat I nearly fell,but the Lord helped me.

14. My power and my strengthcome from the Lord,and he has saved me.

15. From the tents of God's peoplecome shouts of victory:“The Lord is powerful!

16. With his mighty armthe Lord wins victories!The Lord is powerful!”

17. And so my life is safe,and I will live to tellwhat the Lord has done.

18. He punished me terribly,but he did not let deathlay its hands on me.
