Psalm 119:114

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

My shield and hiding-place thou art: I on thy word rely.

See the chapter Copy

Thou art my hiding-place, thou shalt from trouble keep me free: Thou with songs of deliverance about shalt compass me.

Yet thou my shield and glory art, th' uplifter of mine head.

My soul for thy salvation faints; yet I thy word believe.

So who thee fear shall joy to see me trusting in thy word.

For God the Lord's a sun and shield: he'll grace and glory give; And will withhold no good from them that uprightly do live.

I cry'd, and, from his holy hill, the Lord me answer made.

The word of truth out of my mouth take thou not utterly; For on thy judgments righteous my hope doth still rely.
