5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place. |
6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? |
7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me. |
8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. |
9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. |
10 All nations compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. |
11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. |
12 They compassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. |
13 Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. |
14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation. |
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. |
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly. |
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. |
18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. |
