Chapter 118.
|
||
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
|
||
Let Israel now say that his loving kindness endures forever.
|
||
Let the house of Aaron now say that his loving kindness endures forever.
|
||
Now let those who fear the LORD say that his loving kindness endures forever.
|
||
Out of my distress, I called on the LORD. The LORD answered me with freedom.
|
||
The LORD is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
|
||
The LORD is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me.
|
||
It is better to take refuge in the LORD, than to put confidence in man.
|
||
It is better to take refuge in the LORD, than to put confidence in princes.
|
||
All the nations surrounded me, but in the LORD’s name I cut them off.
|
||
They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In the LORD’s name I indeed cut them off.
|
||
They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In the LORD’s name I cut them off.
|
||
You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, but the LORD helped me.
|
||
The LORD is my strength and song. He has become my salvation.
|
||
The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. “The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
|
||
The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD does valiantly!”
|
||
I will not die, but live, and declare the LORD’s works.
|
||
The LORD has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death.
|
||
Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to the LORD.
|
||
This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous will enter into it.
|
||
I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, and have become my salvation.
|
||
The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
|
||
This is the LORD’s doing. It is marvelous in our eyes.
|
||
This is the day that the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!
|
||
Save us now, we beg you, LORD! LORD, we beg you, send prosperity now.
|
||
Blessed is he who comes in the LORD’s name! We have blessed you out of the LORD’s house.
|
||
The LORD is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.
|
||
You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.
|
||
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
