⁹ If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
    and you make the Most High your dwelling,

⁴ Look and see, there is no one at my right hand;
    no one is concerned for me.
I have no refuge;^(A)
    no one cares^(B) for my life.

⁵ I cry to you, Lord;
    I say, “You are my refuge,^(C)
    my portion^(D) in the land of the living.”^(E)

⁵ Blessed are those^(A) whose help^(B) is the God of Jacob,
    whose hope is in the Lord their God.

⁶ He is the Maker of heaven^(C) and earth,
    the sea, and everything in them—
    he remains faithful^(D) forever.
