⁵ For he will conceal me there when troubles come;
    he will hide me in his sanctuary.
    He will place me out of reach on a high rock.

¹⁰ The name of the Lord is a strong fortress;
    the godly run to him and are safe.

²⁰ You hide them in the shelter of your presence,
    safe from those who conspire against them.
You shelter them in your presence,
    far from accusing tongues.

⁷ Though I am surrounded by troubles,
    you will protect me from the anger of my enemies.
You reach out your hand,
    and the power of your right hand saves me.

¹⁵ Then call on me when you are in trouble,
    and I will rescue you,
    and you will give me glory.”

² He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
    out of the mud and the mire.
He set my feet on solid ground
    and steadied me as I walked along.

⁸ Guard me as you would guard your own eyes.^[a]
    Hide me in the shadow of your wings.
