1. I will love you, O LORD, my strength.
2. 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, and my high tower.
3. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.
4. The sorrows of death surrounded me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid.
5. The sorrows of sheol surrounded me: the snares of death confronted me.
6. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
