Keep me safe, O God, for I have come to you for refuge.
The Lord protects those of childlike faith; I was facing death, and he saved me.
Those who trust in the Lord are as secure as Mount Zion; they will not be defeated but will endure forever.
But joyful are those who have the God of Israel as their helper, whose hope is in the Lord their God.
My steps have stayed on your path; I have not wavered from following you.
Guard me as you would guard your own eyes. Hide me in the shadow of your wings.
“Is this the one who relies on the Lord? Then let the Lord save him! If the Lord loves him so much, let the Lord rescue him!”
Protect me! Rescue my life from them! Do not let me be disgraced, for in you I take refuge.
Love the Lord, all you godly ones! For the Lord protects those who are loyal to him, but he harshly punishes the arrogant.
For the Lord loves justice, and he will never abandon the godly. He will keep them safe forever, but the children of the wicked will die.
O God, have mercy on me, for people are hounding me. My foes attack me all day long.
You have rejected us, O God, and broken our defenses. You have been angry with us; now restore us to your favor.
I come to you for protection, O Lord my God. Save me from my persecutors—rescue me!
If you don’t, they will maul me like a lion, tearing me to pieces with no one to rescue me.
O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, what joy for those who trust in you.
Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you.
You who love the Lord, hate evil! He protects the lives of his godly people and rescues them from the power of the wicked.
He guards the paths of the just and protects those who are faithful to him.
In fact, we expected to die. But as a result, we stopped relying on ourselves and learned to rely only on God, who raises the dead.
That is why I am suffering here in prison. But I am not ashamed of it, for I know the one in whom I trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until the day of his return.
