16. The Lord shouted his command, and a powerful wind began to blow. Then the bottom of the sea could be seen, and the earth’s foundations were uncovered.
17. The Lord reached down from above and grabbed me. He pulled me from the deep water.
18. He saved me from my powerful enemies, who hated me. They were too strong for me, so he saved me.
19. They attacked me in my time of trouble, but the Lord was there to support me.
20. He was pleased with me, so he rescued me. He took me to a safe place.
21. The Lord rewarded me for doing what is right. He was good to me because I am innocent.

24. He knows I did nothing that was wrong. I have kept myself from sinning.

26. Lord, you are faithful to those who are faithful. You are good to those who are good.
27. You never do wrong to those who have done no wrong. But you outsmart the wicked, no matter how clever they are.
28. You help those who are humble, but as soon as you see the proud, you humiliate them.
29. Lord, you are my lamp. You, Lord, turn the darkness around me into light.
30. With your help I can defeat an army. If my God is with me, I can climb over enemy walls.
31. God’s way is perfect. The Lord’S promise always proves to be true. He protects those who trust in him.
32. There is no God except the Lord. There is no Rock except our God.
33. God is my strong fortress. He clears the path I need to take.
34. He makes my feet as steady as those of a deer. Even on steep mountains he keeps me from falling.
