Vers 1
O praise the Lord, for he is good;
his mercy lasteth ever.
Let those of Israel now say,
His mercy faileth never.Vers 2
Now let the house of Aaron say,
His mercy lasteth ever.
Let those that fear the Lord now say,
His mercy faileth never.Vers 3
I in distress call’d on the Lord;
the Lord did answer me:
He in a large place did me set,
from trouble made me free.Vers 4
The mighty Lord is on my side,
I will not be afraid;
For any thing that man can do
I shall not be dismay’d.Vers 5
The Lord doth take my part with them
that help to succour me:
Therefore on those that do me hate
I my desire shall see.Vers 6
Better it is to trust in God
than trust in man’s defence;
Better to trust in God than make
princes our confidence.Vers 7
The nations, joining all in one,
did compass me about:
But in the Lord’s most holy name
I shall them all root out.Vers 8
They compass’d me about; I say,
they compass’d me about:
But in the Lord’s most holy name
I shall them all root out.Vers 9
Like bees they compass’d me about;
like unto thorns that flame
They quenched are: for them shall I
destroy in God’s own name.Vers 10
Thou sore hast thrust, that I might fall,
but my Lord helped me.
God my salvation is become,
my strength and song is he.Vers 11
In dwellings of the righteous
is heard the melody
Of joy and health: the Lord’s right hand
doth ever valiantly.Vers 12
The right hand of the mighty Lord
exalted is on high;
The right hand of the mighty Lord
doth ever valiantly.Vers 13
I shall not die, but live,
and shall the works of God discover.
The Lord hath me chastised sore,
but not to death giv’n over.Vers 14
O set ye open unto me
the gates of righteousness;
Then will I enter into them,
and I the Lord will bless.Vers 15
This is the gate of God, by it
the just shall enter in.
Thee will I praise, for thou me heard’st
and hast my safety been.Vers 16
That stone is made head corner-stone,
which builders did despise:
This is the doing of the Lord,
and wondrous in our eyes.Vers 17
This is the day God made, in it
we’ll joy triumphantly.
Save now, I pray thee, Lord; I pray,
send now prosperity.Vers 18
Blessed is he in God’s great name
that cometh us to save:
We, from the house which to the Lord
pertains, you blessed have.Vers 19
God is the Lord, who unto us
hath made light to arise:
Bind ye unto the altar’s horns
with cords the sacrifice.Vers 20
Thou art my God, I’ll thee exalt;
my God, I will thee praise.
Give thanks to God, for he is good:
his mercy lasts always.
