¹ O give thanks to 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 to 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 encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.¹¹ They encompassed me; yes, they encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.¹² They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.¹³ Thou hast violently thrust 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 severely: but he hath not given me over to death.

¹⁹ Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter 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] wonderful 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, who hath shown us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] to 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 to the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
