CPDV - Psalms - 117

117:1  Alleluia. Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.

117:2  Let Israel now say: For he is good, for his mercy is forever.

117:3  Let the house of Aaron now say: For his mercy is forever.

117:4  Let those who fear the Lord now say: For his mercy is forever.

117:5  In my tribulation, I called upon the Lord. And the Lord heeded me with generosity.

117:6  The Lord is my helper. I will not fear what man can do to me.

117:7  The Lord is my helper. And I will look down upon my enemies.

117:8  It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in man.

117:9  It is good to hope in the Lord, rather than to hope in leaders.

117:10  All the nations have surrounded me. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.

117:11  Surrounding me, they closed in on me. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.

117:12  They surrounded me like a swarm, and they burned like fire among the thorns. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.

117:13  Having been pushed, I was overturned so as to fall. But the Lord took me up.

117:14  The Lord is my strength and my praise. And he has become my salvation.

117:15  A voice of exultation and salvation is in the tabernacles of the just.

117:16  The right hand of the Lord has wrought virtue. The right hand of the Lord has exalted me. The right hand of the Lord has wrought virtue.

117:17  I will not die, but I will live. And I will declare the works of the Lord.

117:18  When chastising, the Lord chastised me. But he has not delivered me over to death.

117:19  Open the gates of justice to me. I will enter them, and I will confess to the Lord.

117:20  This is the gate of the Lord. The just will enter by it.

117:21  I will confess to you because you have heard me. And you have become my salvation.

117:22  The stone which the builders have rejected, this has become the head of the corner.

117:23  By the Lord has this been done, and it is a wonder before our eyes.

117:24  This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us exult and rejoice in it.

117:25  O Lord, grant salvation to me. O Lord, grant good prosperity.

117:26  Blessed is he who arrives in the name of the Lord. We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.

117:27  The Lord is God, and he has enlightened us. Establish a solemn day amid a dense crowd, even to the horn of the altar.

117:28  You are my God, and I will confess to you. You are my God, and I will exalt you. I will confess to you, for you have heeded me. And you have become my salvation.

117:29  Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.
