^5 (E)Out of my distress I ^(F)called on the Lord;
    the Lord answered me and set me ^(G)free.
^6 (H)The Lord is on my side; ^(I)I will not fear.
    What can man do to me?
^7 (J)The Lord is on my side as my helper;
    I shall ^(K)look in triumph on those who hate me.

^8 (L)It is better to take refuge in the Lord
    ^(M)than to trust in man.

    ^(N)than to trust in princes.

^10 (O)All nations surrounded me;
    in the name of the Lord I cut them off!
¹¹ They surrounded me, surrounded me on every side;
    in the name of the Lord I cut them off!
^12 (P)They surrounded me like bees;
    they went out like ^(Q)a fire among thorns;
    in the name of the Lord I cut them off!

    but the Lord helped me.

¹⁴ The Lord is my strength and my song;
    ^(S)he has become my salvation.
¹⁵ Glad songs of salvation
    are in the tents of the righteous:
^(T)“The right hand of the Lord ^(U)does valiantly,
¹⁶     the right hand of the Lord exalts,
    the right hand of the Lord ^(V)does valiantly!”

^17 (W)I shall not die, but I shall live,
    and ^(X)recount the deeds of the Lord.
¹⁸ The Lord has ^(Y)disciplined me severely,
    but he has not given me over to death.

^19 (Z)Open to me the gates of righteousness,
    that I may enter through them
    and give thanks to the Lord.
²⁰ This is the gate of the Lord;
    ^(AA)the righteous shall enter through it.
²¹ I thank you that ^(AB)you have answered me
    ^(AC)and have become my salvation.
^22 (AD)The stone that the builders rejected
    has become the cornerstone.^[b]
23 This is the Lord's doing;
    it is marvelous in our eyes.
²⁴ This is the day that the Lord has made;
    let us rejoice and be glad in it.

²⁵ Save us, we pray, O Lord!
    O Lord, we pray, give us success!

^26 (AE)Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!
    We ^(AF)bless you from the house of the Lord.
²⁷ The Lord is God,
    and he has made ^(AG)his light to shine upon us.
Bind the festal sacrifice with cords,
    up to ^(AH)the horns of the altar!

²⁸ You are my God, and I will give thanks to you;
    you are my God; I will ^(AI)extol you.
^29 (AJ)Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
    for his steadfast love endures forever!
