Hold up my steps in your paths, that my feet slip not.

You have also given me the shield of your salvation: and your right hand has held me up, and your gentleness has made me great.

Be you not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, else they come not near unto you.

Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.

I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.

Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not your peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with you, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.

For innumerable evils have surrounded me: my iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of my head: therefore my heart fails me.

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

Pour out your indignation upon them, and let your wrathful anger take hold of them.

Nevertheless I am continually with you: you have held me by my right hand.

The earth and all inhabitants are dissolved: I hold up the pillars of it. Selah.

You hold my eyes from closing: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

[A Psalm or Song of Asaph.] Keep not silence, O God: hold not your peace, and be not still, O God.

When I said, My foot slips; your mercy, O LORD, held me up.

[To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] Hold not your peace, O God of my praise;

The sorrows of death surrounded me, and the pangs of sheol got hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

Horror has taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake your law.

Hold me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto your statutes continually.

Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet your commandments are my delights.

Even there shall your hand lead me, and your right hand shall hold me.
