‏ Psalms 118

1O give thanks to the LORD; for [he is] good: because his mercy [endureth] for ever. 2Let Israel now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever. 3Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever. 4Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever. 5I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, [and set me] in a large place. 6The LORD [is] on my side; I will not fear: what can man do to me? 7The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see [my desire] upon them that hate me. 8[It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. 9[It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. 10All nations encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. 11They encompassed me; yes, they encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 12They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 13Thou hast violently thrust at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. 14The LORD [is] my strength and song, and is become my salvation. 15The voice of rejoicing and salvation [is] in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 16The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. 17I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. 18The LORD hath chastened me severely: but he hath not given me over to death. 19Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter them, [and] I will praise the LORD: 20This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. 21I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. 22The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner. 23This is the LORD'S doing; it [is] wonderful in our eyes. 24This [is] the day [which] the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 25Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity. 26Blessed [be] he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD. 27God [is] the LORD, who hath shown us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] to the horns of the altar. 28Thou [art] my God, and I will praise thee: [thou art] my God, I will exalt thee. 29O give thanks to the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
