Psalm 118:18-22 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

18. The Lord has really punished me. But he didn't let me die.

19. Open the gates of the temple for me. I will enter and give thanks to the Lord.

20. This is the gate of the Lord. Only those who do what is right can go through it.

21. Lord, I will give thanks to you, because you answered me. You have saved me.

22. The stone the builders didn't accept has become the most important stone of all.
