Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.

O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:

O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

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?
