2 For his loving kindness is great toward us. Yahweh's faithfulness endures forever. Praise Yah!
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, Into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, and bless his name. For Yahweh is good. His loving kindness endures forever, His faithfulness to all generations.
Yahweh, you are my God; I will exalt you, I will praise your name; for you have done wonderful things, [even] counsels of old, in faithfulness [and] truth.
For as the heavens are high above the earth, So great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.
Mercy and truth meet together. Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
He has given help to Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy, As he spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and his seed forever."
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Now I say that Christ has been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers, and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "Therefore will I give praise to you among the Gentiles, And sing to your name."

PSALM 117
Ps 117:1, 2. This may be regarded as a doxology, suitable to be appended to any Psalm of similar character, and prophetical of the prevalence of God's grace in the world, in which aspect Paul quotes it (Ro 15:11; compare Ps 47:2; 66:8).
2. is great toward us—literally, "prevailed over" or "protected us."
