Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

Verse 22 is found in chapter 55 of Psalms. Psalm 55 combines personal anguish, social violence, and betrayal by a close friend. The possibility of escaping by flight contrasts with the reality of remaining within a city dominated by conflict. The betrayal is especially painful because it comes from someone who shared worship and friendship. The counsel to cast one’s burden upon the Lord turns an experience of anxiety into an invitation to trust in God’s continual care.

Ihr Mund ist glätter denn Butter, und sie haben Krieg im Sinn; ihre Worte sind gelinder denn Öl, und sind doch bloße Schwerter.
Echa sobre Jehová tu carga, y él te sustentará; No dejará para siempre caído al justo.
Echa tu carga sobre Jehová, y él te sostendrá; jamás permitirá que el justo se tambalee.
Remets ton sort à l'Eternel, et il te soutiendra, Il ne laissera jamais chanceler le juste.
Rimetti nel Signore il tuo peso, ed egli ti sosterrà; Egli non permetterà giammai che il giusto caggia.
Lança o teu cuidado sobre o SENHOR, e ele te susterá; não permitirá jamais que o justo seja abalado.
你要把你的重擔卸給耶和華, 他必扶持你, 他永不叫義人動搖。
