Psalms 118:22

20 This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter through it.

21 I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.

The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

23 This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24 This is the day that the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
