⁹ By him the face of his high seat is veiled, and his cloud stretched out over it.

¹⁰ By him a circle is marked out on the face of the waters, to the limits of the light and the dark.

¹¹ The pillars of heaven are shaking, and are overcome by his sharp words.

²⁶ And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

²⁷ And the men were full of wonder, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea do his orders?

²⁸ And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.

³⁰ But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?

³¹ Then do not be full of care, saying, What are we to have for food or drink? or, With what may we be clothed?

³² Because the Gentiles go in search of all these things: for your Father in heaven has knowledge that you have need of all these things:

³⁹ A cloud was stretched over them for a cover; and he sent fire to give light in the night.

⁴⁰ At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.

⁴¹ His hand made the rock open, and the waters came streaming out; they went down through the dry places like a river.

⁴² For he kept in mind his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.

²¹ He will keep you safe from the evil tongue; and you will have no fear of wasting when it comes.

⁹ You have rule over the sea in storm; when its waves are troubled, you make them calm.

²⁵ I have been young, and now am old, but I have not seen the good man without help, or his children looking for bread.

¹ <To the chief music-maker. Of the sons of Korah; put to Alamoth. A Song.> God is our harbour and our strength, a very present help in trouble.

² For this cause we will have no fear, even though the earth is changed, and though the mountains are moved in the heart of the sea;

³ Though its waters are sounding and troubled, and though the mountains are shaking with their violent motion. (Selah.)

⁴ There is a river whose streams make glad the resting-place of God, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.

⁶ And a shade in the daytime from the heat, and a safe cover from storm and from rain.

¹⁶ The store of meal did not come to an end, and the bottle was never without oil, as the Lord had said by the mouth of Elijah.

³⁵ Who will come between us and the love of Christ? Will trouble, or pain, or cruel acts, or the need of food or of clothing, or danger, or the sword?

³⁶ As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.

³⁷ But we are able to overcome all these things and more through his love.

³⁸ For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers,

³⁹ Or things on high, or things under the earth, or anything which is made, will be able to come between us and the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

² When you go through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not go over you: when you go through the fire, you will not be burned; and the flame will have no power over you.

¹⁰ And those who have knowledge of your name will put their faith in you; because you, Lord, have ever given your help to those who were waiting for you.

¹¹ Make songs of praise to the Lord, whose house is in Zion: make his doings clear to the people.

¹⁹ They will not be shamed in the evil time, and in the days when all are in need of food they will have enough.

²⁰ But the wrongdoers will come to destruction, and the haters of the Lord will be like the fat of lambs, they will be burned up; they will go up in smoke, and never again be seen.

⁸ Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah.)

⁷ The Lord is good, a strong place in the day of trouble; and he has knowledge of those who take him for their safe cover.

⁸ Troubles are round us on every side, but we are not shut in; things are hard for us, but we see a way out of them;

⁹ We are cruelly attacked, but not without hope; we are made low, but we are not without help;

¹⁰ In our bodies there is ever the mark of the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our bodies.

⁴ For you have been a strong place for the poor and the crushed in their trouble, a safe place from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the wrath of the cruel ones is like a winter storm.

³ For I will send water on the land needing it, and streams on the dry earth: I will let my spirit come down on your seed, and my blessing on your offspring.
