Yahweh's words are flawless words,
as silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times.
Psalm 12:6 (WEB)

A Song of Ascents. By David.
1 Yahweh, my heart isn’t haughty, nor my eyes lofty;
nor do I concern myself with great matters,
or things too wonderful for me.
2 Surely I have stilled and quieted my soul,
like a weaned child with his mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 Israel, hope in Yahweh,
from this time forward and forever more.
Psa 91:1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psa 91:2 This I declare about the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him. Psa 91:3 For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease.
To him that excells. A Psalm of David.
1 O Lord, you have tried me and known me.
2 you know my sitting and my rising: you understand my thought afar off.
3 you examine my paths and my lying down, and are accustomed to all my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but behold, you know it wholly, O Lord.
5 you shut me in behind and before, and lay your hand upon me.
6 your knowledge is too wonderful for me: it is so high that I cannot attain it.
7 Where shall I go from your Spirit? or where shall I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend into heaven, you are there: if I lie down in hell, you are there.
9 Let me take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:
10 Yet there shall your hand lead me, and your right hand hold me.
11 If I say, “Yet the darkness shall hide me,” even the night shall be light around me.
12 Yes, the darkness does not hide from you: but the night shines as the day: the darkness and light are both alike.
13 For you have possessed my reins: you have covered me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderously made: marvelous are your works, and my soul knows it well.
15 My bones are not hidden from you, though I was made in a secret place, and fashioned beneath in the earth.
16 your eyes saw me when I was without form: for in your book were all things written, which in continuance were fashioned, when there were none of them before.
17 How dear therefore are your thoughts to me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they are more than the sand: when I wake, I am still with you.
19 Oh that you would slay, O God, the wicked and bloody men, to whom I say, “Depart from me:”
20 Who speak wickedly of you, and being your enemies, are lifted up in vain.
21 Do I not hate them, O Lord, that hate you? and do I not earnestly contend with those that rise up against you?
22 I hate them with a sincere hatred, as they were my utter enemies.
23 Try me, O God, and know my heart: prove me and know my thoughts,
24 And consider if there be any way of wickedness in me, and lead me in the way forever.
Psalm 139, THE HOLY BIBLE
I have hidden your promise in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
Psalm 119:11, THE HOLY BIBLE
