Psalm 118

Confitemini Domino

1

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; *

his mercy endures for ever.

2

Let Israel now proclaim, *

“His mercy endures for ever.”

14

The Lord is my strength and my song, *

and he has become my salvation.

15

There is a sound of exultation and victory *

in the tents of the righteous:

16

“The right hand of the Lord has triumphed! *

the right hand of the Lord is exalted!

the right hand of the Lord has triumphed!”

17

I shall not die, but live, *

and declare the works of the Lord.

18

The Lord has punished me sorely, *

but he did not hand me over to death.

19

Open for me the gates of righteousness; *

I will enter them;

I will offer thanks to the Lord.

20

“This is the gate of the Lord; *

he who is righteous may enter.”

21

I will give thanks to you, for you answered me *

and have become my salvation.

22

The same stone which the builders rejected *

has become the chief cornerstone.

23

This is the Lord’s doing, *

and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24

On this day the Lord has acted; *

we will rejoice and be glad in it.
