My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.

My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my hope.

In God is my salvation, and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my safe place.

Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah.)

Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power is God's:

O God, you are my God; early will I make my search for you: my soul is dry for need of you, my flesh is wasted with desire for you, as a dry and burning land where no water is;

But the king will have joy in God; everyone who takes an oath by him will have cause for pride; but the false mouth will be stopped.

O God, let the voice of my grief come to your ear: keep my life from the fear of those who are against me.

But God sends out an arrow against them; suddenly they are wounded.

And in fear men make public the works of God; and giving thought to his acts they get wisdom.

It is right for you, O God, to have praise in Zion: to you let the offering be made.

You will give us an answer in righteousness by great acts of power, O God of our salvation; you who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of the far-off lands of the sea;

The God by whose strength the mountains are fixed; who is robed with power:

You have given your blessing to the earth, watering it and making it fertile; the river of God is full of water: and having made it ready, you give men grain.

Send up a glad cry to God, all the earth:

Say to God, How greatly to be feared are your works! because of your great power your haters are forced to put themselves under your feet.

Come and see the works of God: he is to be feared in all he does to the children of men.

Give blessings to our God, O you peoples, let the voice of his praise be loud;

For you, O God, have put us to the test: testing us by fire like silver.

Come, give ear to me, all you God-fearing men, so that I may make clear to you what he has done for my soul.
