Eachwill be like a refugefrom the windAnd a shelterfrom the storm,Like streamsof waterin a drycountry,Like the shadeof a hugerockin a parchedland.
Deliverme, O LORD,from my enemies;I takerefugein You.
You are my hidingplace;You preserveme from trouble;You surroundme with songsof deliverance.Selah.
O God,You are my God;I shall seekYou earnestly;My soulthirstsfor You, my fleshyearnsfor You, In a dryand wearylandwhere there is nowater.
He who dwellsin the shelterof the MostHighWill abidein the shadowof the Almighty.
"Behold,Godis my salvation,I will trustand not be afraid;For the LORDGODis my strengthand song,And He has becomemy salvation."
"Give[us] advice,makea decision;Castyour shadowlike nightat highnoon;Hidethe outcasts,do not betraythe fugitive.

"I will openriverson the bareheightsAnd springsin the midstof the valleys;I will makethe wildernessa poolof waterAnd the drylandfountainsof water.
"Behold,I will dosomethingnew,Nowit will springforth;Will you not be awareof it? I will evenmakea roadwayin the wilderness,Riversin the desert.
"The beastsof the fieldwill glorifyMe, The jackalsand the ostriches,BecauseI have givenwatersin the wildernessAnd riversin the desert,To givedrinkto My chosenpeople.

For a childwill be bornto us, a sonwill be givento us; And the governmentwill reston His shoulders;And His namewill be calledWonderfulCounselor,MightyGod,EternalFather,Princeof Peace.
Behold,daysare coming,'declaresthe LORD,when I will fulfillthe goodwordwhichI have spokenconcerningthe houseof Israeland the houseof Judah.
The breathof our nostrils,the LORD'Sanointed,Was capturedin their pits,Of whomwe had said,"Under his shadowWe shall liveamong the nations."
"Awake,O sword,againstMy Shepherd,And againstthe man,My Associate,"Declaresthe LORDof hosts."Strikethe Shepherdthat the sheepmay be scattered;And I will turnMy handagainstthe littleones.
Nowon the lastday,the great[day] of the feast,Jesusstoodand criedout, saying,"Ifanyoneis thirsty,let him cometo Me and drink.
By common confession,greatis the mysteryof godliness:He whowas revealedin the flesh,Was vindicatedin the Spirit,Seenby angels,Proclaimedamongthe nations,Believedon in the world,Takenup in glory.
Thenhe showedme a riverof the waterof life,clearas crystal,comingfrom the throneof Godand of the Lamb,
