Psalm 118:1-29 NASB

[1] Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His mercy is everlasting. [2] Let Israel say, “His mercy is everlasting.” [3] Oh let the house of Aaron say, “His mercy is everlasting.” [4] Let those who fear the Lord say, “His mercy is everlasting.” [5] From my distress I called upon the Lord; The Lord answered me and put me in an open space. [6] The Lord is for me; I will not fear; What can man do to me? [7] The Lord is for me among those who help me; Therefore I will look with satisfaction on those who hate me. [8] It is better to take refuge in the Lord Than to trust in people. [9] It is better to take refuge in the Lord Than to trust in noblemen. [10] All nations surrounded me; In the name of the Lord I will certainly fend them off. [11] They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me; In the name of the Lord I will certainly fend them off. [12] They surrounded me like bees; They were extinguished like a fire of thorn bushes; In the name of the Lord I will certainly fend them off. [13] You pushed me violently so that I was falling, But the Lord helped me. [14] The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation. [15] The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the Lord performs valiantly. [16] The right hand of the Lord is exalted; The right hand of the Lord performs valiantly. [17] I will not die, but live, And tell of the works of the Lord. [18] The Lord has disciplined me severely, But He has not turned me over to death. [19] Open the gates of righteousness to me; I will enter through them, I will give thanks to the Lord. [20] This is the gate of the Lord; The righteous will enter through it. [21] I will give thanks to You, for You have answered me, And You have become my salvation. [22] A stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. [23] This came about from the Lord; It is marvelous in our eyes. [24] This is the day which the Lord has made; Let’s rejoice and be glad in it. [25] Please, O Lord, do save us; Please, O Lord, do send prosperity! [26] Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord; We have blessed you from the house of the Lord. [27] The Lord is God, and He has given us light; Bind the festival sacrifice to the horns of the altar with cords. [28] You are my God, and I give thanks to You; You are my God, I exalt You. [29] Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His mercy is everlasting.
