^(C)“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
^{3     (D)}my^[a] God, my rock, ^(E)in whom I take refuge,
^(F)my shield, and ^(G)the horn of my salvation,
    ^(H)my stronghold and ^(I)my refuge,
    my savior; you save me from violence.

    and I am saved from my enemies.

    to my God I called.
From his temple he heard my voice,
    and my cry ^(N)came to his ears.
