- 1
Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
- 2
Let Israel now say, “His mercy endures forever.”
- 3
Let the house of Aaron now say, “His mercy endures forever.”
- 4
Let those who fear the LORD now say, “His mercy endures forever.”
- 5
I called on the LORD in distress; The LORD answered me and set me in a broad place.
- 6
The LORD is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?
- 7
The LORD is for me among those who help me; Therefore I shall see my desire on those who 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 surrounded me, But in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
- 11
They surrounded me, Yes, they surrounded me; But in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
- 12
They surrounded me like bees; They were quenched like a fire of thorns; For in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
- 13
You pushed me violently, that I might fall, But the LORD helped me.
- 14
The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.
- 15
The voice of rejoicing and salvation Is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
- 16
The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
- 17
I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD.
- 18
The LORD has chastened me severely, But He has not given me over to death.
- 19
Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go through them, And I will praise the LORD.
- 20
This is the gate of the LORD, Through which the righteous shall enter.
- 21
I will praise You, For You have answered me, And have become my salvation.
- 22
The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone.
- 23
This was the LORD’s doing; It is marvelous in our eyes.
- 24
This is the day the LORD has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.
- 25
Save now, I pray, O LORD; O LORD, I pray, send now prosperity.
- 26
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD.
- 27
God is the LORD, And He has given us light; Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.
- 28
You are my God, and I will praise You; You are my God, I will exalt You.
- 29
Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.
