Behold, God is my helper. The Lord is the one who sustains my soul. | Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the one who sustains me. |
Cast your burden on Yahweh and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved. | Entrust your cares to the Lord, and he will uphold you; he will never allow the righteous to waver. |
|
When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you. | When I am terrified, I place my trust in you. |
In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to me? | In God, whose word I praise, in God I place my trust and know no fear; what can people do to me? |
Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be above all the earth! | Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory shine over all the earth. |
For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies. | For your kindness extends to the heavens; your faithfulness, to the skies. |
But I will sing of your strength. Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning. For you have been my high tower, a refuge in the day of my distress. | But I will sing of your strength; when morning dawns, I will proclaim your kindness. For you have been my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. |
My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him. | In God alone is my soul at rest; it is from him that my salvation comes. |
He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken. | He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress, so that I stand ever unshaken. |
My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him. | In God alone be at rest, O my soul; it is from him that my hope comes. |
He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress. I will not be shaken. | He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress, so that I stand unshaken. |
My salvation and my honor is with God. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. | My deliverance and my glory depend on God; he is my mighty rock and my refuge. |
Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work. | And so does kindness, O Lord. You reward each person in accordance with his deeds. |
God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water. | O God, you are my God, for whom I have been searching earnestly. My soul yearns for you and my body thirsts for you, like the earth when it is parched, arid and without water. |
Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you. So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name. | Your kindness is a greater joy than life itself; thus my lips will speak your praise. I will bless you all my life; with uplifted hands I will call on your name. |
For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined. | For you, O God, have put us to the test; you have purified us as silver is refined. |
I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue. | I lifted up my voice in prayer to him; his praise was on my tongue. |
God will bless us. All the ends of the earth shall fear him. | May God continue to bless us and be revered to the ends of the earth. |
Sing to God! Sing praises to his name! Extol him who rides on the clouds: to Yah, his name! Rejoice before him! A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation. | Sing to God, sing praise to his name; exalt him who rides upon the clouds. Rejoice in the presence of this God whose name is the Lord. The Father of orphans and the defender of widows: such is God in his holy dwelling place. |
God sets the lonely in families. He brings out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land. | He gives a home to those who are forsaken and leads out prisoners amid chants of exultation, while rebels are forced to live in an arid land. |
Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, even the God who is our salvation. Selah. | Blessed be the Lord, day after day, the God of our salvation, who carries our burden. Selah |
My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all day long. | My mouth is filled with your praises as I relate your glory all day long. |
My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you! | When I sing to you, my lips will rejoice, and so will my soul, which you have redeemed. |
Whom do I have in heaven? There is no one on earth whom I desire besides you. | Whom do I have in heaven except you? And besides you there is nothing else I desire on earth. |
My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. | Even should my heart and my flesh fail, God is the rock of my heart and my portion forever. |
