Rescue me from my enemies, Lord; I run to you to hide me.
Then I pray to you, O Lord. I say, “You are my place of refuge. You are all I really want in life.
Bring me out of prison so I can thank you. The godly will crowd around me, for you are good to me.”
My future is in your hands. Rescue me from those who hunt me down relentlessly.
My enemies will retreat when I call to you for help. This I know: God is on my side!
I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me.
Rescue me from my enemies, O God. Protect me from those who have come to destroy me.
The name of the Lord is a strong fortress; the godly run to him and are safe.
So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us.
