₁Give thanks to the LORD, because he is good,

and his love is eternal.

₂Let the people of Israel say,

“His love is eternal.”

₁₄The LORD makes me powerful and strong;

he has saved me.

₁₅Listen to the glad shouts of victory in the tents of God's people:

“The LORD's mighty power has done it!

₁₆His power has brought us victory —

his mighty power in battle!”

₁₇I will not die; instead, I will live

and proclaim what the LORD has done.

₁₈He has punished me severely,

but he has not let me die.

₁₉Open to me the gates of the Temple;

I will go in and give thanks to the LORD!

₂₀This is the gate of the LORD;

only the righteous can come in.

₂₁I praise you, LORD, because you heard me,

because you have given me victory.

₂₂The stone which the builders rejected as worthless

turned out to be the most important of all.

₂₃This was done by the LORD;

what a wonderful sight it is!

₂₄This is the day of the LORD's victory;

let us be happy, let us celebrate!
