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.(d)
13
Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the Lord helped me.

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.(e)
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.
