The LORD Is on My Side

1Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.+ 2Let Israel now say, That his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.+ 3Let the house of Aaron now say, That his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.+ 4Let them now that fear Jehovah say, That his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.+ 5Out of my distress I called upon Jehovah: Jehovah answered me [and set me] in a large place.+ 6Jehovah is on my side; I will not fear: What can man do unto me?+ 7Jehovah is on my side among them that help me: Therefore shall I see [my desire] upon them that hate me.+ 8It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to put confidence in man.+ 9It is better to take refuge in Jehovah Than to put confidence in princes.+ 10All nations compassed me about: In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.+ 11They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.+ 12They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: In the name of Jehovah I will cut them off.+ 13Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; But Jehovah helped me.+ 14Jehovah is my strength and song; And he is become my salvation.+ 15The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous: The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly.+ 16The right hand of Jehovah is exalted: The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly.+ 17I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of Jehovah.+ 18Jehovah hath chastened me sore; But he hath not given me over unto death.+ 19Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto Jehovah.+ 20This is the gate of Jehovah; The righteous shall enter into it.+ 21I will give thanks unto thee; for thou hast answered me, And art become my salvation.+ 22The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner.+ 23This is Jehovah’s doing; It is marvellous in our eyes.+ 24This is the day which Jehovah hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.+ 25Save now, we beseech thee, O Jehovah: O Jehovah, we beseech thee, send now prosperity.+ 26Blessed be he that cometh in the name of Jehovah: We have blessed you out of the house of Jehovah.+ 27Jehovah is God, and he hath given us light: Bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.+ 28Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto thee: Thou art my God, I will exalt thee.+ 29Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.+
