1 Protect me, O God, for I have taken shelter in you.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are the Lord,my only source of well-being.”
3 As for God’s chosen people who are in the land,and the leading officials I admired so much –
4 their troubles multiply,they desire other gods.I will not pour out drink offerings of blood to their gods,nor will I make vows in the name of their gods.
