⁶ 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)
7 You are my hiding place;^(E)
    you will protect me from trouble^(F)
    and surround me with songs of deliverance.^(G)

⁸ 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.
⁹ 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.
