Psalms 118:25
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.
O LORD, save us, we pray. We beseech You, O LORD, cause us to prosper!
26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. From the house of the LORD we bless you.
27 The LORD is God; He has made His light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
