18. The Lord has chastened me severely,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.
20. This is the gate of the Lordthrough which the righteous may enter.
21. I will give you thanks, for you answered me;you have become my salvation.
22. The stone the builders rejectedhas become the cornerstone;
23. the Lord has done this,and it is marvellous in our eyes.
24. The Lord has done it this very day;let us rejoice today and be glad.
25. Lord, save us!Lord, grant us success!
