“Behold the man! He did not take God as his refuge, but he trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and grew powerful through his wickedness.”
As for me, to be near God is my good, to make the Lord God my refuge. I shall declare all your works in the gates of daughter Zion.

For the leader; ‘al Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the just run to it and are safe.
For the leader. A psalm of David.
Wait for the Lord, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the Lord!
Praise the Lord, my soul; I will praise the Lord all my life, sing praise to my God while I live.
You changed my mourning into dancing; you took off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness.
