1Oh give thanks unto Jehovah ; for he is good ; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever . 2Let Israel now say , That his lovingkindness endureth for ever . 3Let the house of Aaron now say, That his lovingkindness endureth for ever . 4Let them now that fear Jehovah say, That his lovingkindness endureth for ever .
The Lord is My Strength and Song
5Out of my distress I called upon Jehovah : Jehovah answered me and set me in a large place . 6Jehovah is on my side; I will not fear : What can man do unto me ? 7Jehovah is on my side among them that help me : Therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me . 8It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to put confidence in man . 9It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to put confidence in princes .
The Stone the Builders Rejected
10All nations compassed me about : In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off . 11They compassed me about ; yea , they compassed me about : In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off . 12They compassed me about like bees ; they are quenched as the fire of thorns : In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off . 13Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall ; But Jehovah helped me . 14Jehovah is my strength and song ; And he is become my salvation . 15The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous : The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly . 16The right hand of Jehovah is exalted : The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly . 17I shall not die , but live , And declare the works of Jehovah . 18Jehovah hath chastened me sore ; But he hath not given me over unto death . 19Open to me the gates of righteousness : I will enter into them , I will give thanks unto Jehovah . 20This is the gate of Jehovah ; The righteous shall enter into it . 21I will give thanks unto thee ; for thou hast answered me , And art become my salvation .
A Day of Salvation
22The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner . 23This is Jehovah ’s doing; It is marvellous in our eyes . 24This is the day which Jehovah hath made ; We will rejoice and be glad in it . 25Save now , we beseech thee , O Jehovah : O Jehovah , we beseech thee , send now prosperity . 26Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah : We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah . 27Jehovah is God , and he hath given us light: Bind the sacrifice with cords , even unto the horns of the altar . 28Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto thee: Thou art my God, I will exalt thee. 29Oh give thanks unto Jehovah ; for he is good ; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever .
