22 Blessed be the Lord,marvelously he showed to mehis mercy in a fortified city.
23 Though I had said in my alarm,“I am cut off from your eyes.”Yet you heard my voice, my cry for mercy,when I pleaded with you for help.
24 Love the Lord, all you who are faithful to him.The Lord protects the loyal,but repays the arrogant in full.
25 Be strong and take heart,all who hope in the Lord.
