1 | O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is
good: because his mercy endureth for ever. |
2 | Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth
for ever. |
3 | Let the
house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever. |
4 | Let them now that fear the LORD say, that
his mercy endureth for ever. |
5 |
I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in
a large place. |
6 |
The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do
unto me?
Heb 13:6

7 |
The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my
desire upon them that hate me. |

put confidence in man. |

It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. |

| All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will
I destroy them. |
11 | They compassed me about; yea, they
compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. |
12 |
They compassed me about like bees: they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for
in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. |
13 | Thou
hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. |
14 | The LORD is my strength and song, and is
become my salvation. |
15 |
The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the
righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. |
16 | The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the
right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. |
17 |
I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. |
18 | The
LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. |
19 |
Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise
the LORD: |
20 | This gate of the LORD, into which the
righteous shall enter. |
21 | I
will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. |
22 |

thee. |
29 | O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is
good: for his mercy endureth for ever. |
