1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place.
6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.
11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
12 They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
13 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD:
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
23 This is the LORD’s doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.
24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
26 Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.
27 God is the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar.
28 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee.
29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Slava Kungam uzvaras priekā
1 Pateicieties Kungam, jo viņš ir labs,
jo uz mūžiem viņa žēlastība!
2 Lai saka Israēls:
uz mūžiem viņa žēlastība!
3 Lai saka Ārona nams:
uz mūžiem viņa žēlastība!
4 Lai saka tie, kas bīstas Kunga:
uz mūžiem viņa žēlastība!
5 No slazda es saucu Kungu,
no plašumiem man atsaucās Kungs!
6 Kungs ar mani, es nebaidos –
ko var padarīt man cilvēks?
7 Kungs ar mani, viņš palīdz man,
lepni nolūkošos uz tiem, kas nīst mani!
8 Labāk patverties pie Kunga
nekā paļauties uz cilvēkiem.
9 Labāk patverties pie Kunga
nekā paļauties uz augstmaņiem.
10 Visas tautas sanāca ap mani –
Kunga vārdā es tās atvairīju.
11 Tās nāca ap mani, tās lenca mani,
Kunga vārdā es tās atvairīju.
12 Tās salaidās ap mani kā bites,
tās izdega ātri kā uguns ērkšķos,
Kunga vārdā es tās atvairīju.
13 Grūstin tu mani grūdi – es kritu –
Kungs mani noturēja.
14 Mans spēks un vara ir Kungs,
viņš man tapis par pestīšanu.
15 Uzvaras gaviļu balsis taisno teltīs:
Kunga labā roka ir jaudājusi!
16 Kunga labā roka ir pacelta augstu!
Kunga labā roka ir jaudājusi!
17 Es nenomiru, es paliku dzīvs,
lai izstāstītu Kunga darbus.
18 Rātin rāja mani Kungs,
bet nāvei neatdeva mani.
19 Atveriet man taisnības vārtus,
ka ienāku tajos pateikties Kungam, –
20 tie ir Kunga vārti, taisnie ienāks tajos.
21 Pateicos tev, ka tu man atbildēji,
ka tu tapi man par pestīšanu!
22 Akmens, ko namdari atmetuši,
ir tapis par stūrakmeni.
23 Kungs licis tam notikt,
mūsu acīm tas liekas brīnums.
24 Šī ir diena, ko Kungs devis,
gavilējiet un līksmojiet šodien!
25 Ak, Kungs, glāb jel mūs,
ak, Kungs, liec, lai mums izdodas!
26 Svētīts, kas nāk Kunga vārdā!
Mēs jūs svētījam no Kunga tempļa!
27 Kungs ir Dievs, viņš mums iededza gaismu!
Rotājiet gājienu pazarēm līdz pat altāra ragiem!
28 Tu esi mans Dievs, un es pateikšos tev –
mans Dievs, es tevi cildināšu!
29 Pateicieties Kungam, jo viņš ir labs,
jo uz mūžiem viņa žēlastība!
