Psalm 118: 1-29 (KJV)
[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.
