3 For you are my high ridge and my stronghold;for the sake of your own reputation you lead me and guide me.
4 You will free me from the net they hid for me,for you are my place of refuge.
5 Into your hand I entrust my life;you will rescue me, O Lord, the faithful God.
6 I hate those who serve worthless idols,but I trust in the Lord.
7 I will be happy and rejoice in your faithfulness,because you notice my painand you are aware of how distressed I am.
8 You do not deliver me over to the power of the enemy;you enable me to stand in a wide open place.
9 Have mercy on me, for I am in distress!My eyes grow dim from suffering.I have lost my strength.
