Psalm 118:9-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

9. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.

10. All nations surrounded me;in the name of the Lord I cut them off!

11. They surrounded me, surrounded me on every side;in the name of the Lord I cut them off!

12. They surrounded me like bees;they went out like a fire among thorns;in the name of the Lord I cut them off!

13. I was pushed hard, so that I was falling,but the Lord helped me.
