²⁷ The God of your fathers is your safe resting-place, and under you are his eternal arms: driving out the forces of your haters from before you, he said, Let destruction overtake them.

² The Lord is my Rock, my walled town, and my saviour; my God, my Rock, in him will I put my faith; my breastplate, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

²⁰ And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

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.

⁹ Because you have said, I am in the hands of the Lord, the Most High is my safe resting-place;

²⁴ But their bows were broken by a strong one, and the cords of their arms were cut by the Strength of Jacob, by the name of the Stone of Israel:

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.

¹ <A Prayer of Moses, the man of God.> Lord, you have been our resting-place in all generations.

² Before the mountains were made, before you had given birth to the earth and the world, before time was, and for ever, you are God.

¹ Happy is he whose resting-place is in the secret of the Lord, and under the shade of the wings of the Most High;

² Who says of the Lord, He is my safe place and my tower of strength: he is my God, in whom is my hope.

¹⁵ For this is the word of him who is high and lifted up, whose resting-place is eternal, whose name is Holy: my resting-place is in the high and holy place, and with him who is crushed and poor in spirit, to give life to the spirit of the poor, and to make strong the heart of the crushed.

¹⁰ The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the upright man running into it is safe.

⁴ Let your hope be in the Lord for ever: for the Lord Jah is an unchanging Rock.

² And a man will be as a safe place from the wind, and a cover from the storm; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shade of a great rock in a waste land.

¹⁰ But the Lord is the true God; he is the living God and an eternal king: when he is angry, the earth is shaking with fear, and the nations give way before his wrath.

³⁴ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who were sent to her! again and again would I have taken your children to myself, as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, but you would not!

²⁸ And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand.

²⁹ That which my Father has given to me has more value than all; and no one is able to take anything out of the Father's hand.

⁵ Who, by the power of God are kept, through faith, for that salvation, which will be seen at the last day.

²⁴ Now to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to give you a place in his glory, free from all evil, with great joy,

¹⁰ And the Evil One who put them in error was sent down into the sea of ever-burning fire, where the beast and the false prophet are, and their punishment will go on day and night for ever and ever.

²⁴ I will say, O my God, take me not away before my time; your years go on through all generations:

² And he took the dragon, the old snake, which is the Evil One and Satan, and put chains on him for a thousand years,

³ And put him into the great deep, and it was shut and locked over him, so that he might put the nations in error no longer, till the thousand years were ended: after this he will be let loose for a little time.

³ In its buildings God is seen to be a high tower.

¹⁵ When his cry comes up to me, I will give him an answer: I will be with him in trouble; I will make him free from danger and give him honour.

²⁵ When the storm-wind is past, the sinner is seen no longer, but the upright man is safe for ever.

⁶ His left hand is under my head, and his right hand is round about me.

⁶ For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace.

² For this cause he will give them up till the time when she who is with child has given birth: then the rest of his brothers will come back to the children of Israel.

² For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

⁹ And be seen in him, not having my righteousness which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

¹⁷ Now to the King eternal, ever-living, unseen, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. So be it.

¹⁴ How much more will the blood of Christ, who, being without sin, made an offering of himself to God through the Holy Spirit, make your hearts clean from dead works to be servants of the living God?

³ Be certain then today that it is the Lord your God who goes over before you like an all-burning fire; he will send destruction on them, crushing them before you; and you will send them in flight, putting an end to them quickly, as the Lord has said.

⁴ And after the Lord has sent them in flight from before you, say not in your heart, Because of my righteousness the Lord has given me this land; when it is because of their evil-doing that the Lord is driving these nations out before you.

⁵ Not for your righteousness or because your hearts are upright are you going in to take their land; but because of the evil-doing of these nations the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and to give effect to his oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

¹⁸ And the Lord sent out from before us all the peoples, the Amorites living in the land: so we will be the servants of the Lord, for he is our God.

²⁹ And further, the Glory of Israel will not say what is false, and his purpose may not be changed: for he is not a man, whose purpose may be changed.

⁵ For in the time of trouble he will keep me safe in his tent: in the secret place of his tent he will keep me from men's eyes; high on a rock he will put me.

⁷ How good is your loving mercy, O God! the children of men take cover under the shade of your wings.

⁷ The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah.)

¹¹ The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah.)

² And when the Lord has given them up into your hands and you have overcome them, give them up to complete destruction: make no agreement with them, and have no mercy on them:
