Whoever rests in the shadow of the Most High God will be kept safe by the Mighty One.I will say about the Lord,“ He is my place of safety. He is like a fort to me. He is my God. I trust in him.”
You are my hiding place. You will keep me safe from trouble. You will surround me with songs sung by those who praise you because you save your people.
Each official will be like a place to get out of the wind. He will be like a place to hide from storms. He’ll be like streams of water flowing in the desert. He’ll be like the shadow of a huge rock in a dry and thirsty land.
With all my heart I wait for the Lord to help me. I put my hope in his word.I wait for the Lord to help me. I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come. I’ll say it again. I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come.
The Lord God is like the sun that gives us light. He is like a shield that keeps us safe. The Lord blesses us with favor and honor. He doesn’t hold back anything good from those whose lives are without blame.
