Therefore, let everyone who is faithful pray to you
    where you may be found.[a]
Even if great floods threaten,
    they will never reach him.
You are a place of refuge for me;
    you preserve me from trouble
    and surround me with songs of deliverance.[b] Selah
I will instruct you
    and guide you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you
    and keep my eyes upon you.
