Psalm 118:1-29 BSB

[1] Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever. [2] Let Israel say, “His loving devotion endures forever.” [3] Let the house of Aaron say, “His loving devotion endures forever.” [4] Let those who fear the LORD say, “His loving devotion endures forever.” [5] In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered and set me free. [6] The LORD is on my side; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? [7] The LORD is on my side; He is my helper. Therefore I will look in triumph on those who hate me. [8] It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. [9] It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes. [10] All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off. [11] They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off. [12] They swarmed around me like bees, but they were extinguished like burning thorns; in the name of the LORD I cut them off. [13] I was pushed so hard I was falling, but the LORD helped me. [14] The LORD is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation. [15] Shouts of joy and salvation resound in the tents of the righteous: “The right hand of the LORD performs with valor! [16] The right hand of the LORD is exalted! The right hand of the LORD performs with valor!” [17] I will not die, but I will live and proclaim what the LORD has done. [18] The LORD disciplined me severely, but He has not given me over to death. [19] Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter and give thanks to the LORD. [20] This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it. [21] I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation. [22] The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. [23] This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes. [24] This is the day that the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. [25] O LORD, save us, we pray. We beseech You, O LORD, cause us to prosper! [26] Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. From the house of the LORD we bless you. [27] The LORD is God; He has made His light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar. [28] You are my God, and I will give You thanks. You are my God, and I will exalt You. [29] Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.
