¹ To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. `For the Virgins.' -- A song. God `is' to us a refuge and strength, A help in adversities found most surely.

¹⁸ Near `is' Jehovah to all those calling Him, To all who call Him in truth.

⁹ And Jehovah is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of adversity.

⁴ With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler `is' His truth.

⁵ Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,

⁶ Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,

⁷ There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.

⁸ But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,

⁹ (For Thou, O Jehovah, `art' my refuge,) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.

²⁶ In the fear of Jehovah `is' strong confidence, And to His sons there is a refuge.

⁵ I have cried unto thee, O Jehovah, I have said, `Thou `art' my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.'

¹⁴ and Abraham calleth the name of that place `Jehovah-Jireh,' because it is said this day in the mount, `Jehovah doth provide.'

⁶ The counsel of the poor ye cause to stink, Because Jehovah `is' his refuge.

¹⁷ He sendeth from above -- He taketh me, He draweth me out of many waters.

¹⁸ He delivereth me from my strong enemy, From those hating me, For they were stronger than I.

¹⁹ They are before me in a day of my calamity, And Jehovah is my support,

²⁰ And He bringeth me out to a large place, He draweth me out for He delighted in me.

⁷ Jehovah of Hosts `is' with us, A tower for us `is' the God of Jacob. Selah.
