Psalms

Pss.118

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