Lord my God, I take refuge in you; save and deliver me from all who pursue me,

Lord my God, I go to you for safety. Help me. Save me from all those who are chasing me.

O Lord my God, in you do I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers and deliver me,

I come to you for protection, O Lord my God. Save me from my persecutors— rescue me!

LORD my God, I seek refuge in you; save me from all my pursuers and rescue me,

O Lord my God, in You I have taken refuge; Save me from all those who pursue me, and rescue me,

O Jehovah my God, in thee do I take refuge: Save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me,

Yahweh my God, I seek refuge in You; save me from all my pursuers and rescue me

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

O LORD my God, in you I have taken shelter. Deliver me from all who chase me! Rescue me!

Yahweh, my God, I take refuge in you. Save me from all those who pursue me, and deliver me,

My times are in Your hand; Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from those who persecute me.

A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, on Shigionoth.

“ Who among you fears the Lord? Who obeys the voice of His Servant? Who walks in darkness And has no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord And rely upon his God.

Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him.

But the Lord is with me as a mighty, awesome One. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and will not prevail. They will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper. Their everlasting confusion will never be forgotten.

For You will light my lamp; The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.

When David was a little past the top of the mountain, there was Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth, who met him with a couple of saddled donkeys, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, one hundred clusters of raisins, one hundred summer fruits, and a skin of wine.And the king said to Ziba,“ What do you mean to do with these?” So Ziba said,“ The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride on, the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for those who are faint in the wilderness to drink.”Then the king said,“ And where is your master’s son?” And Ziba said to the king,“ Indeed he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said,‘ Today the house of Israel will restore the kingdom of my father to me.’”So the king said to Ziba,“ Here, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” And Ziba said,“ I humbly bow before you, that I may find favor in your sight, my Lord, O king!”Now when King David came to Bahurim, there was a man from the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera, coming from there. He came out, cursing continuously as he came.And he threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David. And all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.Also Shimei said thus when he cursed:“ Come out! Come out! You bloodthirsty man, you rogue!The Lord has brought upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and the Lord has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. So now you are caught in your own evil, because you are a bloodthirsty man!”Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king,“ Why should this dead dog curse my Lord the king? Please, let me go over and take off his head!”But the king said,“ What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse, because the Lord has said to him,‘ Curse David.’ Who then shall say,‘ Why have you done so?’”And David said to Abishai and all his servants,“ See how my son who came from my own body seeks my life. How much more now may this Benjamite? Let him alone, and let him curse; for so the Lord has ordered him.It may be that the Lord will look on my affliction, and that the Lord will repay me with good for his cursing this day.”And as David and his men went along the road, Shimei went along the hillside opposite him and cursed as he went, threw stones at him and kicked up dust.Now the king and all the people who were with him became weary; so they refreshed themselves there.Meanwhile Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem; and Ahithophel was with him.And so it was, when Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom,“ Long live the king! Long live the king!”So Absalom said to Hushai,“ Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?”And Hushai said to Absalom,“ No, but whom the Lord and this people and all the men of Israel choose, his I will be, and with him I will remain.Furthermore, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father’s presence, so will I be in your presence.”Then Absalom said to Ahithophel,“ Give advice as to what we should do.”And Ahithophel said to Absalom,“ Go in to your father’s concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.Now the advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one had inquired at the oracle of God. So was all the advice of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.

Consider and hear me, O Lord my God; Enlighten my eyes, Lest I sleep the sleep of death;

“ I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself:‘ You have chastised me, and I was chastised, Like an untrained bull; Restore me, and I will return, For You are the Lord my God.

Show Your marvelous lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You who save those who trust in You From those who rise up against them.Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings,From the wicked who oppress me, From my deadly enemies who surround me.

But I have trusted in Your mercy; My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.

Vindicate me, O Lord, For I have walked in my integrity. I have also trusted in the Lord; I shall not slip.

Plead my cause, O Lord, with those who strive with me; Fight against those who fight against me.Take hold of shield and buckler, And stand up for my help.Also draw out the spear, And stop those who pursue me. Say to my soul,“ I am your salvation.”

Then you shall flee through My mountain valley, For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal. Yes, you shall flee As you fled from the earthquake In the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Thus the Lord my God will come, And all the saints with You.

O Lord, You know; Remember me and visit me, And take vengeance for me on my persecutors. In Your enduring patience, do not take me away. Know that for Your sake I have suffered rebuke.

Arise, O Lord; Save me, O my God! For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone; You have broken the teeth of the ungodly.

To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.In You, O Lord, I put my trust; Let me never be ashamed; Deliver me in Your righteousness.

Do not put your trust in princes, Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish.Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the Lord his God,Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever,

Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.

He shall cry to Me,‘ You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.’

O Lord my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me.

In the Lord I put my trust; How can you say to my soul,“ Flee as a bird to your mountain”?

Nevertheless my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt, but I wholly followed the Lord my God.

who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

Then I will go to the altar of God, To God my exceeding joy; And on the harp I will praise You, O God, my God.

O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”Now while I was speaking, praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God,

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

And I prayed to the Lord my God, and made confession, and said,“ O Lord, great and awesome God, who keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments,

O my God, I trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me.
