Psalms 118:3

Aaron
God's love

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

2 Let Israel say, “His loving devotion endures forever.”

Let the house of Aaron say, “His loving devotion endures forever.”

4 Let those who fear the LORD say, “His loving devotion endures forever.”

5 In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered and set me free.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
