1 In thee, O Lord, have I waited; let me not be forever put to shame.
2 Deliver me in thy righteousness and cause me to escape; incline thine ear unto me and save me.
3 Be thou my strong habitation unto which I may continually resort; thou hast given a commandment that I should be saved because thou art my rock and my fortress.
4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the perverse and violent man.
5 For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD; thou art my security from my youth.
