Psalms 118:27

25 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.

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.

28 You are my God, and I will give You thanks. You are my God, and I will exalt You.

29 Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.

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