| 31:1 |
In you, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me in your righteousness.
|
| 31:2 |
Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.
|
| 31:3 |
Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me.
|
| 31:4 |
Free me from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge.
|
| 31:5 |
Into your hands I commit my spirit; redeem me, O LORD, the God of truth.
|
| 31:6 |
I hate those who cling to worthless idols; I trust in the LORD.
|
| 31:7 |
I will be glad and rejoice in your love, for you saw my affliction and knew the anguish of my soul.
|
| 31:8 |
You have not handed me over to the enemy but have set my feet in a spacious place.
|
| 31:9 |
Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weak with sorrow, my soul and my body with grief.
|
| 31:10 |
My life is consumed by anguish and my years by groaning; my strength fails because of my affliction, and my bones grow weak.
|
| 31:11 |
Because of all my enemies, I am the utter contempt of my neighbors; I am a dread to my friends-- those who see me on the street flee from me.
|
| 31:12 |
I am forgotten by them as though I were dead; I have become like broken pottery.
|
| 31:13 |
For I hear the slander of many; there is terror on every side; they conspire against me and plot to take my life.
|
| 31:14 |
But I trust in you, O LORD; I say, "You are my God."
|
| 31:15 |
My times are in your hands; deliver me from my enemies and from those who pursue me.
|
| 31:16 |
Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love.
|
| 31:17 |
Let me not be put to shame, O LORD, for I have cried out to you; but let the wicked be put to shame and lie silent in the grave.
|
| 31:18 |
Let their lying lips be silenced, for with pride and contempt they speak arrogantly against the righteous.
|
| 31:19 |
How great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you bestow in the sight of men on those who take refuge in you.
|
| 31:20 |
In the shelter of your presence you hide them from the intrigues of men; in your dwelling you keep them safe from accusing tongues.
|
| 31:21 |
Praise be to the LORD, for he showed his wonderful love to me when I was in a besieged city.
|
| 31:22 |
In my alarm I said, "I am cut off from your sight!" Yet you heard my cry for mercy when I called to you for help.
|
| 31:23 |
Love the LORD, all his saints! The LORD preserves the faithful, but the proud he pays back in full.
|
| 31:24 |
Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD.
