118:5 From my distress I called upon the LORD; The LORD answered me and set me in a large place. |
118:6 The LORD supports me; I will not fear; What can man do to me? |

118:13 You pushed me violently so that I fell, But the LORD helped me. |
118:14 The LORD provides my strength and song, And He has become my salvation. |
118:15 The sound of joyful shouting and salvation resounds through the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly. |
118:16 The right hand of the LORD shows exaltation; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly. |

118:20 We have come to the gate of the LORD; The righteous will enter through it. |
118:21 I shall give thanks to You, for You have answered me, And You have become my salvation. |
118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief corner stone. |

118:29 Give thanks to the LORD, for He does good; For His lovingkindness extends forever. |
