| Chapter 117 |
1 | Give praise to Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. |
2 | Let Israel now say that he is good: that his mercy endureth for ever. |
3 | Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever. |
4 | Let them that fear the Lord now say, that his mercy endureth for ever. |
5 | In my trouble I called upon the Lord: and the Lord heard me, and enlarged me. |
6 | The Lord is my helper, I will not fear what man can do unto me. |
7 | The Lord is my helper: and I will look over my enemies. |
8 | It is good to confide in the Lord, rather than to have confidence in man. |
9 | It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in princes. |
10 | All nations compassed me about; and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them. |
11 | Surrounding me they compassed me about: and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them. |
12 | They surrounded me like bees, and they burned like fire among thorns: and in the name of the Lord I was revenged on them |
13 | Being pushed I was overturned that I might fall: but the Lord supported me. |
14 | The Lord is my strength and my praise: and he is become my salvation. |
15 | The voice of rejoicing and of salvation is in the tabernacles of the just. |
16 | The right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength: the right hand of the Lord hath exulted me: the right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength. |
17 | I shall not die, but live: and shall declare the works of the Lord. |
18 | The Lord chastising hath chastised me: but he hath not delivered me over to death. |
19 | Open ye to me the gates of justice: I will go into them, and give praise to the Lord. |
20 | This is the gate of the Lord, the just shall enter into it. |
21 | I will give glory to thee because thou hast heard me: and art become my salvation. |
22 | The stone which the builders rejected; the same is become the head of the corner. |
23 | This is the Lord's doing: and it is wonderful in our eyes. |
24 | This is the day which the Lord hath made: let us be glad and rejoice therein. |
25 | O Lord, save me: O Lord, give good success. |
26 | Blessed be he that cometh in the name Lord. We have blessed you out of the house of the Lord. |
27 | The Lord is God, and he hath shone upon us. Appoint a solemn day, with shady boughs, even to the horn of the alter. |
28 | Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, and I will exalt thee. I will praise thee, because thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. |
29 | O praise ye the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. |
