| 1 | O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his steadfast love endures for ever! |
| 2 | Let Israel say, "His steadfast love endures for ever." |
| 3 | Let the house of Aaron say, "His steadfast love endures for ever." |
| 4 | Let those who fear the LORD say, "His steadfast love endures for ever." |
| 5 | Out of my distress I called on the LORD; the LORD answered me and set me free. |
| 6 | With the LORD on my side I do not fear. What can man do to me? |
| 7 | The LORD is on my side to help me; I shall look in triumph on those who hate me. |
| 8 | It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to put confidence in man. |
| 9 | It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. |
| 10 | All nations surrounded me; in the name of the LORD I cut them off! |
| 11 | They surrounded me, surrounded me on every side; in the name of the LORD I cut them off! |
| 12 | They surrounded me like bees, they blazed like a fire of thorns; in the name of the LORD I cut them off! |
| 13 | I was pushed hard, so that I was falling, but the LORD helped me. |
| 14 | The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. |
| 15 | Hark, glad songs of victory in the tents of the righteous: "The right hand of the LORD does valiantly, |
| 16 | the right hand of the LORD is exalted, the right hand of the LORD does valiantly!" |
| 17 | I shall not die, but I shall live, and recount the deeds of the LORD. |
| 18 | The LORD has chastened me sorely, but he has not given me over to death. |
| 19 | Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter through them and give thanks to the LORD. |
| 20 | This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it. |
| 21 | I thank thee that thou hast answered me and hast become my salvation. |
| 22 | The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. |
| 23 | This is the LORD's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. |
| 24 | This is the day which the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. |
| 25 | Save us, we beseech thee, O LORD! O LORD, we beseech thee, give us success! |
| 26 | Blessed be he who enters in the name of the LORD! We bless you from the house of the LORD. |
| 27 | The LORD is God, and he has given us light. Bind the festal procession with branches, up to the horns of the altar! |
| 28 | Thou art my God, and I will give thanks to thee; thou art my God, I will extol thee. |
| 29 | O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures for ever! |
