Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him.
Fear the Lord, you his saints,
for those who fear Him lack nothing.
The lions may grow weak and hungry,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
- Psalm 34: 8-10 -
The righteous cry out and the Lord hears them;
He delivers them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
A righteous man may have many troubles,
but the Lord delivers him from them all;
He protects all his bones,
not one of them will be broken.
-Psalm 34: 17-20-
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
-Psalm 37: 7-
If the Lord delights in a man's way,
he makes his steps firm;
though he stumbles, he will not fall,
for the Lord upholds him with His hand.
-Psalm 37: 23-24-
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
-Psalm 46:1-
Be still and know that I am God.
-Psalm 46:10-
Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you;
He will never let the righteous fall
-Psalm 55:22-
