Psalms 118:7-13 God's Word Translation (GW)

7. The Lord is on my side as my helper.I will see ⌊the defeat of⌋ those who hate me.

8. It is better to depend on the Lordthan to trust mortals.

9. It is better to depend on the Lordthan to trust influential people.

10. All the nations surrounded me,⌊but armed⌋ with the name of the Lord, I defeated them.

11. They surrounded me. Yes, they surrounded me,⌊but armed⌋ with the name of the Lord, I defeated them.

12. They swarmed around me like bees,but they were extinguished like burning thornbushes.⌊So armed⌋ with the name of the Lord, I defeated them.

13. They pushed hard to make me fall,but the Lord helped me.
