Psalm 143:10 (NLT)
Teach me to do your will,
    for you are my God.
May your gracious Spirit lead me forward
    on a firm footing.

Psalm 142:5-6 (TLB)
Then I prayed to Jehovah. 
    “Lord,” I pled, “you are my only place of refuge. 
     Only you can keep me safe.
“Hear my cry, 
    for I am very low. 
Rescue me from my persecutors, 
    for they are too strong for me.
