17 I shall not die but liveand declare the deeds of the Lord.
18 The Lord chastised me harshly,but did not hand me over to death.
19 Open the gates of righteousness;I will enter and thank the Lord.
20 This is the Lord’s own gate,through it the righteous enter.
21 I thank you for you answered me;you have been my savior.
22 The stone the builders rejectedhas become the cornerstone.
23 By the Lord has this been done;it is wonderful in our eyes.
