  Let Israel now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.  

 

 

--

  Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.  

 

 

--

4


 

  Let all worshippers of the Lord now say, that his mercy is unchanging for ever.  

 

 

--

5


 

  I made my prayer to the Lord in my trouble: and the Lord gave me an answer, and put me in a wide place.  

 

 

--

6


 

  The Lord is on my side; I will have no fear: what is man able to do to me?  

 

 

--

7


 

  The Lord is my great helper: I will see my desire against my haters.  

 

 

--

8


 

  It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in man.  

 

 

--

9


 

  It is better to have faith in the Lord than to put one's hope in rulers.  

 

 

--

10


 

  All the nations have come round me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.  

 

 

--

11


 

  They are round me, yes, they are all about me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.  

 

 

--

12


 

  They are round me like bees; but they are put out like a fire among thorns; for in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.  

 

 

--

13


 

  I have been hard pushed by you, so that I might have a fall: but the Lord was my helper.  

 

 

--

14


 

  The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.  

 

 

--

15


 

  The sound of joy and salvation is in the tents of the upright; the right hand of the Lord does works of power.  

 

 

--

16


 

  The right hand of the Lord is lifted up; the right hand of the Lord does works of power.  

 

 

--

17


 

  Life and not death will be my part, and I will give out the story of the works of the Lord.  

 

 

--

18


 

  The hand of Jah has been hard on me; but he has not given me up to death.  

 

 

--

19


 

  Let the doors of righteousness be open to me; I will go in and give praise to the Lord.  

 

 

--

20


 

  This is the door of the Lord's house; the workers of righteousness will go in through it.  

 

 

--

21


 

  I will give you praise, for you have given me an answer, and have become my salvation.  

 

 

--

22


 

  The stone which the builders put on one side has become the chief stone of the building.  

 

 

--

23


 

  This is the Lord's doing; it is a wonder in our eyes.  

 

 

--

24


 

  This is the day which the Lord has made; we will be full of joy and delight in it.  

 

 

--

25


 

  Send salvation now, O Lord; Lord, send us your blessing.  

 

 

--

26


 

  A blessing be on him who comes in the name of the Lord; we give you blessing from the house of the Lord.  

 

 

--

27


 

  The Lord is God, and he has given us light; let the holy dance be ordered with branches, even up to the horns of the altar.  

 

 

--

28


 

  You are my God, and I will give you praise; my God, and I will give honour to your name.  

 

 

--

29


 

  O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
