For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 31 of Psalms. Psalm 31 combines trust, lament, and personal surrender in an extended prayer. God is rock, fortress, and refuge, while the psalmist describes illness, social rejection, and persecution. The surrender of his spirit expresses radical trust in divine hands. Toward the end, the individual experience becomes communal teaching: loving the Lord and taking courage means remaining firm because God preserves those who wait for him.

Neige deine Ohren zu mir, eilend hilf mir! Sei mir ein starker Fels und eine Burg, daß du mir helfest!
Porque tú eres mi roca y mi castillo; Y por tu nombre me guiarás, y me encaminarás.
Porque tú eres mi peña y mi fortaleza; por amor de tu nombre me conducirás y me guiarás.
Car tu es mon rocher, ma forteresse; Et à cause de ton nom tu me conduiras, tu me dirigeras.
Perciocchè tu sei la mia rocca e la mia fortezza; E, per amor del tuo Nome, guidami, e conducimi.
Porque tu és a minha rocha e a minha fortaleza; assim, por amor do teu nome, guia-me e encaminha-me.
你真是我的巖石、我的山寨, 求你為你名的緣故引導我,指教我。
