| I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. | I will love thee, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. |
| In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears. | In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. |

| For it is you who light my lamp; the Lord my God lightens my darkness. | For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness. |
| This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him. | As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him. |
| For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God? | For who is God save the Lord? or who is a rock save our God? |
| You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your right hand supported me, and your gentleness made me great. You gave a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip. | Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great. Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip. |
