Only Version ❧ CM · 8·6·8·6
1 O give ye thanks unto the Lord, because that good is he; because his lovingkindness lasts to perpetuity. 2 For ever that his mercy lasts let Israel now say. 3 Let Aaron’s house now say, that his mercy endures for aye.
4 Likewise let them now say, who of Jehovah fearers be; his lovingkindness that it lasts to perpetuity. 5 I did lift up my voice to God from out of straitness great; the Lord me answer’d, and me plac’d in an enlarged seat.
6 The Lord’s for me, I will not fear what man can do to me. 7 Jehovah takes my part with them that of me helpers be: therefore upon them that me hate my wishes see shall I. 8 ‘Tis better to trust in the Lord: than on man to rely.
9 ‘Tis better to trust on the Lord: than trust in princes put. 10 All nations compass’d me, but them in God’s name I’ll off cut. 11 They compass’d me about, yea they me compassed about: but in Jehovah’s name I will them utterly root out.
12 They compass’d me like bees, are quench’d like as of thorns the flame: but I will utterly destroy them in Jehovah’s name. 13 Thou didst thrust sore to make me fall: the Lord yet helped me. 14 The Lord my fortitude and song: and saving health is he.
15 The tabernacles of the just the voice of joy afford and of salvation: strongly works the right hand of the Lord. 16 The right hand of Jehovah is exalted up on high: the right hand of Jehovah is a working valiantly.
17 I shall not die, but live: and tell what things the Lord worketh. 18 The Lord did sorely chasten me: but gave me not to death. 19 O set wide open unto me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and will Jehovah’s praise confess.
20 This same Jehovah’s gate at which the just shall enter in. 21 I’ll praise thee, for thou hast me heard, and hast my safety been. 22 The stone which builders did refuse head corner stone now lies. 23 This is the doing of the Lord: it’s wondrous in our eyes.
24 This is the very day the which Jehovah he hath made: we will exceedingly rejoice, and in it will be glad. 25 Jehovah, I do thee beseech, salvation now afford: I humbly thee entreat, now send prosperity, O Lord.
26 He that comes in Jehovah’s name O let him blessed be: out of Jehovah’s house to you a blessing wish do we. 27 God he Jehovah is, and he light unto us affords: the sacrifices bind unto the altar’s horns with cords.
28 Thou art my God, and I’ll thee praise, my God I’ll set thee high. 29 O praise the Lord, for he is good, and aye lasts his mercy.
