P This is the gate of the L ORD ;C the righteous shall enter through it. P I thank you that you have answered meC and have become my salvation.

P The stone that the builders rejectedC has become the cornerstone.

P This is the L ORDs doing;C it is marvelous in our eyes.

P This is the day that the L ORD has made;C let us rejoice and be glad in it.

P Save us, we pray, O L ORD !C O L ORD , we pray, give us success!
