May those who honor you come to me--- all those who know your commands.

I will praise him for what he has done; may all who are oppressed listen and be glad!

I prayed to the LORD, and he answered me; he freed me from all my fears.

The helpless call to him, and he answers; he saves them from all their troubles.

Come and listen, all who honor God, and I will tell you what he has done for me.

Then the people who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD listened and heard what they said. In his presence, there was written down in a book a record of those who feared the LORD and respected him.

Then I can answer those who insult me because I trust in your word.

Before sunrise I call to you for help; I place my hope in your promise.

From his sanctuary God has said, "In triumph I will divide Shechem and distribute Sukkoth Valley to my people.

Save me, I pray, from my brother Esau. I am afraid---afraid that he is coming to attack us and destroy us all, even the women and children.

Remember that you promised to make everything go well for me and to give me more descendants than anyone could count, as many as the grains of sand along the seashore."

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
