- But when I am afraid,
I will put my trust in you. - Keep me safe, O God,
for I have come to you for refuge. - Show me the right path, O Lord;
point out the road for me to follow. - I will hurry, without delay,
to obey your commands. - He heals the brokenhearted
and bandages their wounds. - Our God is in the heavens,
and he does as he wishes. - But God is my helper.
The Lord keeps me alive! - Turn away from evil and do good.
Search for peace, and work to maintain it. - Your word is a lamp to guide my feet
and a light for my path. - Our help is from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth. - Search for the Lord and for his strength;
continually seek him. - I wait quietly before God,
for my victory comes from him. - Rescue me, O Lord, from liars
and from all deceitful people. - For I cried out to him for help,
praising him as I spoke. - I will walk in freedom,
for I have devoted myself to your commandments. - How joyful are those who fear the Lord—
all who follow his ways! - You are my refuge and my shield;
your word is my source of hope. - Let all that I am wait quietly before God,
for my hope is in him. - Arise, O Lord!
Punish the wicked, O God!
Do not ignore the helpless! - For who is God except the Lord?
Who but our God is a solid rock? - Give me an eagerness for your laws
rather than a love for money! - Yes, God will bless us,
and people all over the world will fear him. - Victory comes from you, O Lord.
May you bless your people. - You have tested us, O God;
you have purified us like silver. - I have rejoiced in your laws
as much as in riches.
You know what I long for, Lord;
you hear my every sigh.The rich can pay a ransom for their lives,
but the poor won’t even get threatened. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.Next verse!With image
