²⁰ Our souls are waiting for the Lord; he is our help and our salvation.

¹ <A Psalm. Of David.> Praise be to the God of my strength, teaching my hands the use of the sword, and my fingers the art of fighting:

² He is my strength, and my Rock; my high tower, and my saviour; my keeper and my hope: he gives me authority over my people.

²⁰ And they were helped against them, so that the Hagarites, and those with them, were given into their power. For they sent up prayers to God in the fight, and he gave ear to them, because they put their faith in him.

¹⁴ Let your hope be in the Lord: take heart and be strong; yes, let your hope be in the Lord.

¹ <To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David.> My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.

⁵ My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my hope.

⁶ He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.

⁹ O Israel, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹⁰ O house of Aaron, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹¹ You worshippers of the Lord, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.

¹² The Lord has kept us in mind and will give us his blessing; he will send blessings on the house of Israel and on the house of Aaron.

⁵ I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.

⁶ My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.

¹⁷ And I will be waiting for the Lord, whose face is veiled from the house of Jacob, and I will be looking for him.

³¹ But those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength; they will get wings like eagles: running, they will not be tired, and walking, they will have no weariness.
