118:3  Let the house of Aaron say it: “God’s faithful love lasts forever!”
118:4  Let those who honor the Lord say it: “God’s faithful love lasts forever!”
118:5  In tight circumstances, I cried out to the Lord. The Lord answered me with wide-open spaces.
118:6  The Lord is for me—I won’t be afraid. What can anyone do to me?
118:7  The Lord is for me—as my helper. I look in victory on those who hate me.
118:8  It’s far better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust any human.
118:9  It’s far better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust any human leader.
118:10  All the nations surrounded me, but I cut them down in the Lord’s name.
118:11  Yes, they surrounded me on every single side, but I cut them down in the Lord’s name.
118:12  They surrounded me like bees, but they were extinguished like burning thorns. I cut them down in the Lord’s name!
118:13  I was pushed so hard I nearly died, but the Lord helped me.
118:14  The Lord was my strength and protection; he was my saving help!
118:15  The sounds of joyful songs and deliverance are heard in the tents of the righteous: “The Lord’s strong hand is victorious!
118:16  The Lord’s strong hand is ready to strike! The Lord’s strong hand is victorious!”
118:17  I won’t die—no, I will live and declare what the Lord has done.
118:18  Yes, the Lord definitely disciplined me, but he didn’t hand me over to death.
118:19  Open the gates of righteousness for me so I can come in and give thanks to the Lord!
118:20  This is the Lord’s gate; those who are righteous enter through it.
118:21  I thank you because you answered me, because you were my saving help.
118:22  The stone rejected by the builders is now the main foundation stone!
118:23  This has happened because of the Lord; it is astounding in our sight!
118:24  This is the day the Lord acted; we will rejoice and celebrate in it!
118:25  Lord, please save us! Lord, please let us succeed!
118:26  The one who enters in the Lord’s name is blessed; we bless all of you from the Lord’s house.
118:27  The Lord is God! He has shined a light on us! So lead the festival offering with ropes all the way to the horns of the altar.
118:28  You are my God—I will give thanks to you! You are my God—I will lift you up high!
118:29  Give thanks to the Lord because he is good, because his faithful love lasts forever.
