PSALM 118, Third section ... / Derde gedeelte ...

Friday 7 August 2015. 

WORD OF THE DAY:

[Psalm 103:12]

As far as the easter horizon is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. 

MESSAGE OF THE DAY:

PSALM 118, Third section ...

1. English - (New English Translation.)

[Psalm 118:21-29]

21. I will confess, praise and give thanks to You, for You have heard and answered me; and You have become my Salvation and Deliverer. 

22. The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. 

23. This is from the Lord and is His doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. 

24. This is the day which the Lord Has brought about; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 

25. Save now, we beseech You, O Lord; send now prosperity, O Lord, we beseech You, and give to us success!

26. Blessed is he who comes in the Name of the Lord; we bless you from the house of the Lord (you who come into His sanctuary under His guardianship).

27. The Lord is God, Who Has shown and given us light (He Has illuminated us with grace, freedom and joy). Decorate the festival with leafy boughs, and bind the sacrifices to be offered with thick cords (all over the priest's court, right up) to the horns of the altar. 

28. You are my God, and I will confess, praise, and give thanks to You; You are my God, I will extol You. 

29. O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever.
