1. I love thee, O Lord, my strength.
2. The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strong rock, in him will I trust; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
3. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
4. The cords of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
5. The cords of Sheol were round about me: the snares of death came on 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 before him came into his ears.
7. Then the earth shook and trembled, me foundations also of the mountains moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
