Trust in the Lord forever,
    for in the Lord God[a]
    you have an everlasting rock.(A)
For he has brought low
    the inhabitants of the height;
    the lofty city he lays low.
He lays it low to the ground,
    casts it to the dust.(B)
The foot tramples it,
    the feet of the poor,
    the steps of the needy.(C)

The way of the righteous is level;
    straight is the path of the righteous that you clear.(D)

    and casts it down to the dust.(E)
Feet trample(F) it down—
    the feet of the oppressed,(G)

The path of the righteous is level;(I)
