19 Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter and give thanks to the LORD.
20 This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it.
I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.
22 The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
23 This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
