18 The
Lord has
achastened me severely,
But He has not given me over to death.
19 aOpen to me the gates of righteousness;
I will go through them,
And I will praise the
Lord.
20 aThis is the gate of the
Lord,
bThrough which the righteous shall enter.
21 I will praise You,
For You have
aanswered me,
And have become my salvation.
22 aThe stone
which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone.
