²⁶ And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say;

²⁷ And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.

²⁸ And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.

¹⁷ If the Lord had not been my helper, my soul would quickly have gone down into death.

⁶ May the Lord be praised, because he has given ear to the voice of my prayer.

⁷ The Lord is my strength and my breastplate, my heart had faith in him and I am helped; for this cause my heart is full of rapture, and I will give him praise in my song.

⁸ The Lord is their strength, and a strong place of salvation for his king.

²⁸ Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.

⁵ Put all your hope in God, not looking to your reason for support.

⁶ In all your ways give ear to him, and he will make straight your footsteps.

⁷ Put no high value on your wisdom: let the fear of the Lord be before you, and keep yourself from evil:

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.

¹³ For I, the Lord your God, have taken your right hand in mine, saying to you, Have no fear; I will be your helper.

³⁹ But the Lord is the saviour of the upright: he is their strength in the time of trouble.

⁴⁰ And the Lord will be their help, and keep them safe: he will take them out of the hands of the evil-doers, and be their saviour, because they had faith in him.

⁴ See, God is my helper: the Lord is the great supporter of my soul.

³⁶ You have given me the breastplate of your salvation, and your mercy has made me great.

²² Come quickly to give me help, O Lord, my salvation.
