Let me dwell in your tent forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah
One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings,
He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.
To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam of David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in you my soul takes refuge; in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge, till the storms of destruction pass by.
A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tent? Who shall dwell on your holy hill?
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!
On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
The Lord repay you for what you have done, and a full reward be given you by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge!”
The one who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God. Never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own new name.
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.
Look to the right and see: there is none who takes notice of me; no refuge remains to me; no one cares for my soul. I cry to you, O Lord; I say, “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in the courts of our God.
A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
May he be enthroned forever before God; appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!
