“Look at the proud one,
His soul is not right within him,
But the righteous will live by his faith [in the true God].

“Will your creditors not rise up suddenly,
And those who collect from you awaken?
Then you will become plunder for them.

“But [the time is coming when] the earth shall be filled
With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
As the waters cover the sea.

“But the Lord is in His holy temple.
Let all the earth hush and be silent before Him.”

The Lord God is my strength [my source of courage, my invincible army];
He has made my feet [steady and sure] like hinds’ feet
And makes me walk [forward with spiritual confidence] on my high places [of challenge and responsibility].

For the choir director, on my stringed instruments.
