Psalms 118

Psalm 118 is a hymn of thanksgiving praising YHWH's enduring goodness and lovingkindness, recounting the psalmist's deliverance from distress, enemies surrounding like bees, and severe discipline without death, affirming trust in YHWH over humans.[1][2][4] It culminates in entering the gates of righteousness, the rejected stone becoming the cornerstone by YHWH's marvelous doing, and rejoicing in the day YHWH has made.[1][2][3]
