- Behold, God is my helper;
the Lord is the upholder of my life. - Cast your burden on the Lord,
and he will sustain you;
he will never permit
the righteous to be moved. - When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
- In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.
What can flesh do to me? - Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth! - For your steadfast love is great to the heavens,
your faithfulness to the clouds. - But I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress. - For God alone my soul waits in silence;
from him comes my salvation. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken. - For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence,
for my hope is from him. - He only is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be shaken. - On God rests my salvation and my glory;
my mighty rock, my refuge is God. - And that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.
For you will render to a man
according to his work. - O God, you are my God;
earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in a dry and weary land
where there is no water. - Because your steadfast love is better than life,
my lips will praise you.
So I will bless you as long as I live;
in your name I will lift up my hands. - For you, O God, have tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried. - I cried to him with my mouth,
and high praise was on my tongue. - God shall bless us;
let all the ends of the earth fear him! - Sing to God, sing praises to his name;
lift up a song to him who rides through the deserts;
his name is the Lord;
exult before him!
Father of the fatherless and protector of widows
is God in his holy habitation. - God settles the solitary in a home;
he leads out the prisoners to prosperity,
but the rebellious dwell in a parched land. - Blessed be the Lord,
who daily bears us up;
God is our salvation. Selah - My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day. - My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed. - Whom have I in heaven but you?
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. - My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.
Help us, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and atone for our sins,
for your name's sake!Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.Next verse!With image
