Psalm 32:6-8

in time of distress.
Though flood waters[a] threaten,
they will never reach him.(A)
7 You are my shelter; you guard me from distress;
with joyful shouts of deliverance you surround me.
Selah

8 I will instruct you and show you the way you should walk,
give you counsel with my eye upon you.
