but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.

but the Lord helped me.

resound in the tents of the righteous:
“The Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!

the Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!”

and will proclaim what the Lord has done.

but he has not given me over to death.

¹⁹ Open for me the gates of the righteous;
I will enter and give thanks to the Lord.

through which the righteous may enter.

²¹ I will give you thanks, for you answered me;
you have become my salvation.

has become the cornerstone;

and it is marvelous in our eyes.

let us rejoice today and be glad.

Lord, grant us success!

²⁶ Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
From the house of the Lord we bless you.

and he has made his light shine on us.
With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession
up to the horns of the altar.

you are my God, and I will exalt you.

²⁹ Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever.
