Habakkuk Rejoices in the Lord
17 Though the fig tree should not blossom,

and the fields yield no food,
the flock be cut off from the fold
and there be no herd in the stalls,
18 (A)yet I will rejoice in the Lord;
(B)I will take joy in the God of my salvation.
19 God, the Lord, is my strength;
(C)he makes my feet like the deer's;
he makes me (D)tread on my (E)high places.

Psalm 62:1-8
English Standard Version
My Soul Waits for God Alone
To the choirmaster: according to (A)Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
62 For God alone (B)my soul (C)waits in silence;
from him comes my salvation.
2 (D)He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my (E)fortress; (F)I shall not be greatly shaken.
3 How long will all of you attack a man
to batter him,
like (G)a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
4 They only plan to thrust him down from his (H)high position.
They take pleasure in falsehood.
(I)They bless with their mouths,
but inwardly they curse. Selah
5 For God alone, O (J)my soul, wait in silence,
for my hope is from him.
6 (K)He only is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
7 On God rests my (L)salvation and my glory;
my mighty rock, (M)my refuge is God.
8 (N)Trust in him at all times, O people;
(O)pour out your heart before him;
God is (P)a refuge for us. Selah

English Standard Version
