1Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His mercy lasts for ever.
2Let Israel now say that his mercy lasts for ever.
3Let the house of Aaron now say that his mercy lasts for ever.
4Let those who fear the LORD now say that his mercy lasts for ever.
5I called on the LORD when I was in trouble. The LORD answered me, and set me in a wide place.
6The LORD is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can a man do to me?
7The LORD takes my side, with those who help me. So I will see my desire on those who hate me.
8It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
9It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
10All nations surrounded me. But in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
11They surrounded me; yes, they surrounded me. But in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
12They surrounded me like bees. They are put out like a fire of thorns. For in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
13You pushed hard at me, so that I would fall. But the LORD helped me.
14The LORD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.
15The sound of joy and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. The right hand of the LORD does mighty things.
16The right hand of the LORD is lifted high. The right hand of the LORD does mighty things.
17I shall not die, but live, and tell what the LORD has done.
18The LORD has punished me hard, but he has not given me over to death.
19Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will go in through them, and I will praise the LORD.
20This is the gate of the LORD. The righteous shall enter through it.
21I will praise you, for you have heard me, and have become my salvation.
22The stone which the builders refused has become the chief cornerstone.
23This is the LORD's doing. It is wonderful in our eyes.
24This is the day which the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.
25Save now, I beg you, LORD. LORD, I beg you, send success now.
26Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. We have blessed you from the house of the LORD.
27God is the LORD, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, right to the horns of the altar.
28You are my God, and I will praise you. You are my God, I will lift you high.
29Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His mercy lasts for ever.
