He will protect me when I am in danger.
    He will hide me in his tent.[a]
    He will take me up to his place of safety.
If he will help me defeat the enemies around me,
    I will offer sacrifices in his tent with shouts of joy.
    I will sing and play songs to honor the Lord.

Lord, hear my voice.
    Be kind and answer me.
