    that his mercy endureth for ever.

    that his mercy endureth for ever.
  5. I called upon the Lord in trouble; *
    and the Lord heard me at large.
  6. The Lord is on my side; *
    I will not fear what man doeth unto me.
  7. The Lord taketh my part with them that help me; *
    therefore shall I see my desire upon mine enemies.
  8. It is better to trust in the Lord, *
    than to put any confidence in man.
  9. It is better to trust in the Lord, *
    than to put any confidence in princes.
  10. All nations compassed me round about; *
    but in the Name of the Lord will I destroy them.
  11. They kept me in on every side, they kept me in, I say, on every side; *
    but in the Name of the Lord will I destroy them.
  12. They came about me like bees, and are extinct even as the fire among the 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 was my help.
  14. The Lord is my strength, and my song; *
    and is become my salvation.
  15. The voice of joy and health is in the dwellings of the righteous; *
    the right hand of the Lord bringeth mighty things to pass.
  16. The right hand of the Lord hath the pre-eminence; *
    the right hand of the Lord bringeth mighty things to pass.
  17. I shall not die, but live, *
    and declare the works of the Lord.
  18. The Lord hath chastened and corrected me; *
    but he hath not given me over unto death.
  19. Open me the gates of righteousness, *
    that I may go into them, and give thanks unto the Lord.
  20. This is the gate of the Lord, *
    the righteous shall enter into it.
  21. I will thank thee; for thou hast heard me, *
    and art become my salvation.
  22. The same stone which the builders refused, *
    is become the head-stone in the corner.
  23. This is the Lord's doing, *
    and it is marvellous in our eyes.
  24. This is the day which the Lord hath made; *
    we will rejoice and be glad in it.
  25. Help me now, O Lord: *
    O Lord, send us now prosperity.
  26. Blessed be he that cometh in the Name of the Lord: *
    we have wished you good luck, we that are of the house of the Lord.
  27. God is the Lord, who hath showed us light: *
    bind the sacrifice with cords, yea, even unto the horns of the altar.
  28. Thou art my God, and I will thank thee; *
    thou art my God, and I will praise thee.
  29. O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is gracious, *
    and his mercy endureth for ever.
