I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the Lord sustained me.
In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.
If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.
I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid. And I will remove harmful beasts from the land, and the sword shall not go through your land.
And you will feel secure, because there is hope; you will look around and take your rest in security. You will lie down, and none will make you afraid; many will court your favor.
The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe.
It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep.
In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidence, and his children will have a refuge.
who has kept our soul among the living and has not let our feet slip.
