✧O give thanks unto 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 unto 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 compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. ✧11They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. ✧12They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. ✧13Thou hast thrust sore 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 sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. ✧19Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into 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] marvellous 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, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] unto 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 unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
