Psalm 118
A Psalm of Thanksgiving and Deliverance
Open to me the gates of righteousness,
that I may enter through them and give thanks to the LORD.
This is the gate of the LORD;
the righteous shall enter through it.
I give you thanks, for you have answered me
and have become my salvation.
The stone that the builders rejected
has become the chief cornerstone.
This is the LORD’s doing;
it is marvelous in our eyes.
This is the day that the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.
O LORD, save, we pray!
O LORD, grant us success, we pray!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD.
We bless you from the house of the LORD.
The LORD is God, and the LORD has given us light.
Bind the festal procession with branches,
up to the horns of the altar.
You are my God, and I will give you thanks;
you are my God, I will exalt you.
Give thanks to the LORD, for the LORD is good;
for the LORD’s steadfast love endures forever.
