Psalm 118:17–29

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.

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.
