I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. |
|

| A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. | A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished. |
| But as for me, I will sing about your power. Each morning I will sing with joy about your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety when I am in distress. | But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble. |
| You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! | Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. |
| I love you, Lord; you are my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety. | 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. |

| So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. | Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. |
| It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in people. | It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. |
| For I have given rest to the weary and joy to the sorrowing. | For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul. |
| The name of the Lord is a strong fortress; the godly run to him and are safe. | The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. |
| He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken. | He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved. |
