# Chapter 31
|
|
1. In You, O Lord, I put my trust;
|
|
Let me never be ashamed;
|
|
Deliver me in Your righteousness.
|
|
|
|
2. Bow down Your ear to me,
|
|
Deliver me speedily;
|
|
Be my rock of refuge,
|
|
A fortress of defense to save me.
|
|
|
|
3. For You are my rock and my fortress;
|
|
Therefore, for Your name's sake,
|
|
Lead me and guide me.
|
|
|
|
4. Pull me out of the net which they have secretly laid for me,
|
|
For You are my strength.
|
|
|
|
5. Into Your hand I commit my spirit;
|
|
You have redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.
|
|
|
|
6. I have hated those who regard useless idols;
|
|
But I trust in the Lord.
|
|
|
|
7. I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy,
|
|
For You have considered my trouble;
|
|
You have known my soul in adversities,
|
|
|
|
8. And have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy;
|
|
You have set my feet in a wide place.
|
|
|
|
9. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am in trouble;
|
|
My eye wastes away with grief,
|
|
Yes, my soul and my body!
|
|
|
|
10. For my life is spent with grief,
|
|
And my years with sighing;
|
|
My strength fails because of my iniquity,
|
|
And my bones waste away.
|
|
|
|
11. I am a reproach among all my enemies,
|
|
But especially among my neighbors,
|
|
And am repulsive to my acquaintances;
|
|
Those who see me outside flee from me.
|
|
|
|
12. I am forgotten like a dead man, out of mind;
|
|
I am like a broken vessel.
|
|
|
|
13. For I hear the slander of many;
|
|
Fear is on every side;
|
|
While they take counsel together against me,
|
|
They scheme to take away my life.
|
|
|
|
14. But as for me, I trust in You, O Lord;
|
|
I say, "You are my God."
|
|
|
|
15. My times are in Your hand;
|
|
Deliver me from the hand of my enemies,
|
|
And from those who persecute me.
|
|
|
|
16. Make Your face shine upon Your servant;
|
|
Save me for Your mercies' sake.
|
|
|
|
17. Do not let me be ashamed, O Lord, for I have called upon You;
|
|
Let the wicked be ashamed;
|
|
Let them be silent in the grave.
|
|
|
|
18. Let the lying lips be put to silence,
|
|
Which speak insolent things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
|
|
|
|
19. Oh, how great is Your goodness,
|
|
Which You have laid up for those who fear You,
|
|
Which You have prepared for those who trust in You
|
|
In the presence of the sons of men!
|
|
|
|
20. You shall hide them in the secret place of Your presence
|
|
From the plots of man;
|
|
You shall keep them secretly in a pavilion
|
|
From the strife of tongues.
|
|
|
|
21. Blessed be the Lord,
|
|
For He has shown me His marvelous kindness in a strong city!
|
|
|
|
22. For I said in my haste,
|
|
"I am cut off from before Your eyes";
|
|
Nevertheless You heard the voice of my supplications
|
|
When I cried out to You.
|
|
|
|
23. Oh, love the Lord, all you His saints!
|
|
For the Lord preserves the faithful,
|
|
And fully repays the proud person.
|
|
|
|
24. Be of good courage,
|
|
And He shall strengthen your heart,
|
|
All you who hope in the Lord.
