|
|
\q2 I look up toward the hills and I ask myself, "Who will help me?"

|
|
\v 2 My answer is that Yahweh is the one who helps me;
|
|
\q2 he is the one who made heaven and the earth.

\v 6 He will not allow the sun to harm us during the day,
|
|
\q2 and he will not allow the moon to harm us during the night.
