These are confessions of identity. You broaden the path beneath me, so that my ankles do not turn. I pursued my enemies and overtook them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed. I crushed them so that they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet. have not withheld the request of his lips. through the unfailing love of the Most High he will not be shaken. in you they trusted and were not disappointed. I shall not be in want. let me not be put to shame, I do not sit with deceitful men, my heart will not fear. my heart may sing to you and not be silent. You have not handed me over to the enemy. when the mighty waters rise, they will not reach him. he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand. will not forsake his faithful ones. his feet do not slip. LORD will not leave them in their power or let them be condemned when brought to trial. my sighing is not hidden from you. I do not seal my lips, as you know, O LORD. ; he will bless him in the land and not surrender him to the desire of his foes. my enemy does not triumph over me. my sword does not bring me victory; we had not forgotten you or been false to your covenant. Our hearts had not turned back. we will not fear, though the earth give way. she will not fall; I will not be afraid. I will not be shaken. , who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!I am forced to restore what I did not steal. does not despise his captive people. not one of the warriors can lift his hands. put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds. forgave their iniquities and did not destroy them. we will not turn away from you. I will not take my love from him, nor will I ever betray my faithfulness.I will not violate my covenant. I will not lie to David. will not fear the terror of night. it will not come near you. you will not strike your foot against a stone. For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance. faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me. haughty eyes and a proud heart, him will I not endure. he will not despise their plea. forget not all his benefits. He will not always accuse. does not treat us as our sins deserve. Do not touch my anointed ones. he did not let their herds diminish. The LORD has sworn and will not change his mind. I will not be afraid. I will not die but live. he has not given me over to death. I will not neglect your word. will not be put to shame, I do not turn from your law. I will not forget your law. I may not be put to shame. I do not forget your decrees. A few confessions. Obviously the Psalms knows his identity.
