9  Because you have made the Lord your ^odwelling place—

the Most High, who is my ^crefuge¹—

3  Be to me a rock of ^jrefuge,

to which I may continually come;

you have ^kgiven the command to save me,

for you are my ^lrock and my fortress.

1  Lord, you have been our ^udwelling place¹

in all generations.

1  He who dwells in ^athe shelter of the Most High

will abide in ^bthe shadow of the Almighty.

2  I will say¹ to the Lord, “My ^crefuge and my ^dfortress,

my God, in whom I ^etrust.”

4  ^qLook to the ^rright and see:

^sthere is none who takes notice of me;

^tno refuge remains to me;

no one cares for my soul.

5  I cry to you, O Lord;

I say, “You are my ^urefuge,

my ^vportion in ^wthe land of the living.”

5  ^uBlessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,

whose ^vhope is in the Lord his God,

6  ^wwho made heaven and earth,

the sea, and all that is in them,

^xwho keeps faith forever;
