Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
    while you may be found;(A)
surely the rising(B) of the mighty waters(C)
    will not reach them.(D)
You are my hiding place;(E)
    you will protect me from trouble(F)
    and surround me with songs of deliverance.(G)

I will instruct(H) you and teach you(I) in the way you should go;
    I will counsel you with my loving eye on(J) you.
Do not be like the horse or the mule,
    which have no understanding
but must be controlled by bit and bridle(K)
    or they will not come to you.
10 Many are the woes of the wicked,(L)
    but the Lord’s unfailing love
    surrounds the one who trusts(M) in him.

11 Rejoice in the Lord(N) and be glad, you righteous;
    sing, all you who are upright in heart!
