17 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake. 18 And not a hair of your head will perish.
19 "By your endurance you will win your lives.
17 A horse is a vain thing for safety,
neither does he deliver any by his great power.
18 Behold, the LORD’s eye is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his loving kindness,
19 to deliver their soul from death,
to keep them alive in famine.
17 I will make the horn of David to bud there.
I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame,
but on himself, his crown will shine."
19 If you are willing and obedient,
you will eat the good of the land;
20 but if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured with the sword;
for the the LORD’s mouth has spoken it."
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
22 Cast your burden on the LORD and he will sustain you.
He will never allow the righteous to be moved.
1 Unless the LORD builds the house,
they who build it labour in vain.
Unless the LORD watches over the city,
the watchman guards it in vain.
1 Blessed be the LORD, my rock,
who trains my hands to war,
and my fingers to battle—
2 my loving kindness, my fortress,
my high tower, my deliverer,
my shield, and he in whom I take refuge,
who subdues my people under me.
15 I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.
8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD,
than to put confidence in man.
6 So that with good courage we say,
"The Lord is my helper. I will not fear.
What can man do to me?"
1 Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
1 Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
14 The LORD will fight for you, and you shall be still."
8 Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me! But you say, ‘How have we robbed you?’ In tithes and offerings. 9 You are cursed with the curse; for you rob me, even this whole nation. 10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says the LORD of Armies, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there will not be enough room for.
6 For the LORD gives wisdom.
Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
7 He lays up sound wisdom for the upright.
He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
8 that he may guard the paths of justice,
and preserve the way of his saints.
30 As for God, his way is perfect.
The LORD’s word is tried.
He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.
1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills.
Where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to be moved.
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is your keeper.
The LORD is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will keep you from all evil.
He will keep your soul.
8 The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in,
from this time forward, and forever more.
17 No weapon that is formed against you will prevail;
and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgement.
This is the heritage of the LORD’s servants,
and their righteousness is of me," says the LORD.
29 Now therefore, let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord GOD, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing."
32 For who is God, besides the LORD?
Who is a rock, besides our God?
7 The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him.
10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good.
Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.
26 I will make them and the places around my hill a blessing. I will cause the shower to come down in its season. There will be showers of blessing.
14 This is the boldness which we have towards him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. 15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
6 The LORD is on my side. I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?
33 But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.
1 May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble.
May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,
2 send you help from the sanctuary,
grant you support from Zion,
6 The LORD preserves the simple.
I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 Return to your rest, my soul,
for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.
8 For you have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
and my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
9 He who walks blamelessly walks surely,
but he who perverts his ways will be found out.
1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust."
26 In the fear of the LORD is a secure fortress,
and he will be a refuge for his children.
20 Our soul has waited for the LORD.
He is our help and our shield.
6 Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid or scared of them, for the LORD your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you."
4 Even to old age I am he,
and even to grey hairs I will carry you.
I have made, and I will bear.
Yes, I will carry, and will deliver.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.
31 The horse is prepared for the day of battle;
but victory is with the LORD.
8 The LORD will fulfil that which concerns me.
Your loving kindness, LORD, endures forever.
Don’t forsake the works of your own hands.
6 Righteousness guards the way of integrity,
but wickedness overthrows the sinner.
2 He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress.
I will never be greatly shaken.
18 "‘Therefore you shall do my statutes, and keep my ordinances and do them; and you shall dwell in the land in safety.
9 The LORD will also be a high tower for the oppressed;
a high tower in times of trouble.
11 For the LORD God is a sun and a shield.
The LORD will give grace and glory.
He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.
8 I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a name like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger,
but those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
11 Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, LORD.
Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.
10 The LORD’s name is a strong tower:
the righteous run to him, and are safe.
10 The LORD’s name is a strong tower:
the righteous run to him, and are safe.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
and ten thousand at your right hand;
but it will not come near you.
10 You who love the LORD, hate evil!
He preserves the souls of his saints.
He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
18 We know that whoever is born of God doesn’t sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn’t touch him.
7 "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. 8 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
16 You open your hand,
and satisfy the desire of every living thing.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
11 I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are. 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name. I have kept those whom you have given me. None of them is lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
10 You are he who gives salvation to kings,
who rescues David, his servant, from the deadly sword.
11 But let all those who take refuge in you rejoice.
Let them always shout for joy, because you defend them.
Let them also who love your name be joyful in you.
12 For you will bless the righteous.
LORD, you will surround him with favour as with a shield.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God.
Everyone who swears by him will praise him,
for the mouth of those who speak lies shall be silenced.
23 Keep your heart with all diligence,
for out of it is the wellspring of life.
27 The eternal God is your dwelling place.
Underneath are the everlasting arms.
He thrust out the enemy from before you,
and said, ‘Destroy!’
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation.
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life.
Of whom shall I be afraid?
7 For the king trusts in the LORD.
Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.
8 Your hand will find out all of your enemies.
Your right hand will find out those who hate you.
9 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger.
The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath.
The fire shall devour them.
25 The righteous one eats to the satisfying of his soul,
but the belly of the wicked goes hungry.
22 The LORD redeems the soul of his servants.
None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
5 As birds hovering, so the LORD of Armies will protect Jerusalem.
He will protect and deliver it.
He will pass over and preserve it."
16 But I will sing of your strength.
Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning.
For you have been my high tower,
a refuge in the day of my distress.
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul."
4 Sing to God! Sing praises to his name!
Extol him who rides on the clouds:
to the LORD, his name!
Rejoice before him!
5 A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows,
is God in his holy habitation.

a very present help in trouble.

a very present help in trouble.
1 LORD, how my adversaries have increased!
Many are those who rise up against me.
2 Many there are who say of my soul,
"There is no help for him in God." Selah.
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 I cry to the LORD with my voice,
and he answers me out of his holy hill. Selah.
5 I laid myself down and slept.
I awakened, for the LORD sustains me.
6 I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people
who have set themselves against me on every side.
12 About Benjamin he said,
"The beloved of the LORD will dwell in safety by him.
He covers him all day long.

Your right hand sustains me.
Your gentleness has made me great.
36 You have enlarged my steps under me,
My feet have not slipped.
25 I have been young, and now am old,
yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken,
nor his children begging for bread.
19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens,
even the God who is our salvation. Selah.
4 He will cover you with his feathers.
Under his wings you will take refuge.
His faithfulness is your shield and rampart.
12 A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge;
but the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

Turn your ear to me.
Hear my speech.

you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.
8 Keep me as the apple of your eye.
Hide me under the shadow of your wings,
9 from the wicked who oppress me,
my deadly enemies, who surround me.

The LORD raises up those who are bowed down.

but he turns the way of the wicked upside down.

26 for the LORD will be your confidence,
and will keep your foot from being taken.
6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.
114 You are my hiding place and my shield.
I hope in your word.
7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing,
unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.
22 All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."
19 My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

and delivers them.
7 You are my hiding place.
You will preserve me from trouble.
You will surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

29 "Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. 30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
9 Because you have made LORD your refuge,
and the Most High your dwelling place,
10 no evil shall happen to you,
neither shall any plague come near your dwelling.
31 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
