22 Blessed be the Lord, marvelously he showed to me his mercy in a fortified city.

23 Though I had said in my alarm, "I am cut off from your eyes." [AK] Yet you heard my voice, my cry for mercy, when I pleaded with you for help.

24 Love the Lord, all you who are faithful to him. The Lord protects the loyal, but repays the arrogant in full.
