Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
Be gracious to me, O God, for man tramples on me; all day long an attacker oppresses me;
Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings,
The LORD preserves the simple; when I was brought low, he saved me.
O LORD of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you!
Love the LORD, all you his saints! The LORD preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride.
which is why I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me.[3]
guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints.
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,
And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
O LORD my God, in you do I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers and deliver me,
Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever.
O you who love the LORD, hate evil! He preserves the lives of his saints; he delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
O God, you have rejected us, broken our defenses; you have been angry; oh, restore us.
For the LORD loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me! Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
My steps have held fast to your paths; my feet have not slipped.
Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead.
"He trusts in the LORD; let him deliver him; let him rescue him, for he delights in him!"
lest like a lion they tear my soul apart, rending it in pieces, with none to deliver.
