19 (A)Open the gates of righteousness to me;
I will enter through them, I will give thanks to [a]the Lord.
20 This is the gate of the Lord;
The (B)righteous will enter through it.
21 I will give thanks to You, for You have (C)answered me,
And You have (D)become my salvation.

22 A (E)stone which the builders rejected
Has become the [b]chief cornerstone.
23 This came about from the Lord;
It is marvelous in our eyes.
24 This is the day which the Lord has made;
Let’s (F)rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Please, O Lord, (G)do save us;
Please, O Lord, do send (H)prosperity!
26 (I)Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord;
We have (J)blessed you from the house of the Lord.
27 (K)The Lord is God, and He has given us (L)light;
Bind the festival sacrifice [c]to the (M)horns of the altar with cords.
28 (N)You are my God, and I give thanks to You;
You are my God, (O)I exalt You.
29 (P)Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;
For His mercy is everlasting.
