‘Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat down on them,’ nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; ‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’ ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’

The Lord will rescue his servants; no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.

For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God?

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.

You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.

Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge.

Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the Lord’s anger.

Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever.

The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.” Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.

Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

But you, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.

You make your saving help my shield, and your right hand sustains me; your help has made me great. You provide a broad path for my feet, so that my ankles do not give way.

The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans.

Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels?

So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”

You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in your word.

As for God, his way is perfect: The Lord’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him.

The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.

For he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.

Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.

The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him.

I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
