Psalm 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.
