Our ancestors put their trust in you; they trusted you, and you saved them.

They called to you and escaped from danger; they trusted you and were not disappointed.

I will always thank the LORD; I will never stop praising him.

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

Clap your hands for joy, all peoples! Praise God with loud songs!

He gave us victory over the peoples; he made us rule over the nations.

I've lost all hope, so what if God kills me? I am going to state my case to him.

Trust in the LORD forever; he will always protect us.

All of you that honor the LORD and obey the words of his servant, the path you walk may be dark indeed, but trust in the LORD, rely on your God.

Yes, my children, remain in union with him, so that when he appears we may be full of courage and need not hide in shame from him on the Day he comes.

My heart breaks when I remember the past, when I went with the crowds to the house of God and led them as they walked along, a happy crowd, singing and shouting praise to God.

Listen to my prayer, O LORD, and hear my cry for help!

I bring him all my complaints; I tell him all my troubles.

"No, I'm not drunk, sir," she answered. "I haven't been drinking! I am desperate, and I have been praying, pouring out my troubles to the LORD.

You punished your people, LORD, and in anguish they prayed to you.

All through the night get up again and again to cry out to the Lord; Pour out your heart and beg him for mercy on your children--- Children starving to death on every street corner!

Don't worry about anything, but in all your prayers ask God for what you need, always asking him with a thankful heart.

The LORD is my protector; he is my strong fortress. My God is my protection, and with him I am safe. He protects me like a shield; he defends me and keeps me safe.

The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.

Reverence for the LORD gives confidence and security to a man and his family.

There are these two things, then, that cannot change and about which God cannot lie. So we who have found safety with him are greatly encouraged to hold firmly to the hope placed before us.
