Your right hand supports me;

your help has made me great.

36 You have made a wide path for my feet

to keep them from slipping.

28 For You will light my lamp;

The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.

29 For by You I can run against a troop,

By my God I can leap over a wall.

30 As for God, His way is perfect;

The word of the Lord is proven;

He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

31 For who is God, except the Lord?

And who is a rock, except our God?

And sets me on my high places.

So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

You support me with your right hand.

You have stooped to make me great.

36 You give me a better way to live,

so I live as you want me to.

28 For thou wilt light my lamp:

Jehovah my God will lighten my darkness.

29 For by thee I run upon a troop;

And by my God do I leap over a wall.

30 As for God, his way is perfect:

The word of Jehovah is tried;

He is a shield unto all them that take refuge in him.

31 For who is God, save Jehovah?

And who is a rock, besides our God,

32 The God that girdeth me with strength,

And maketh my way perfect?

33 He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet:

And setteth me upon my high places.

And thy right hand hath holden me up,

And thy gentleness hath made me great.
