Psalm 118:19

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter through them and give thanks to the Lord.

See the chapter Copy

Open the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps faith may enter in.

Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him, bless his name!

Hezekiah also had said, “What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?”

The Lord will save me, and we will sing to stringed instruments all the days of our life, at the house of the Lord.

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!

Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation.
