Chapter 31

1


 

  {To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} In thee, Jehovah, do I trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.  

 

 

-

2


 

  Incline thine ear to me, deliver me speedily; be a strong rock to me, a house of defence to save me.  

 

 

-

3


 

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

 

 

-

4


 

  Draw me out of the net that they have hidden for me; for thou art my strength.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Into thy hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, Jehovah, [thou] łGod of truth.  

 

 

-

6


 

  I have hated them that observe lying vanities; and as for me, I have confided in Jehovah.  

 

 

-

7


 

  I will be glad and rejoice in thy loving-kindness, for thou hast seen mine affliction; thou hast known the troubles of my soul,  

 

 

-

8


 

  And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large place.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Be gracious unto me, Jehovah, for I am in trouble: mine eye wasteth away with vexation, my soul and my belly.  

 

 

-

10


 

  For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing; my strength faileth through mine iniquity, and my bones are wasted.  

 

 

-

11


 

  More than to all mine oppressors, I am become exceedingly a reproach, even to my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that see me without flee from me.  

 

 

-

12


 

  I am forgotten in [their] heart as a dead man; I am become like a broken vessel.  

 

 

-

13


 

  For I have heard the slander of many -- terror on every side -- when they take counsel together against me: they plot to take away my life.  

 

 

-

14


 

  But I confided in thee, Jehovah; I said, thou art my God.  

 

 

-

15


 

  My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from my persecutors.  

 

 

-

16


 

  Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy loving-kindness.  

 

 

-

17


 

  Jehovah, let me not be ashamed; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, let them be silent in Sheol.  

 

 

-

18


 

  Let the lying lips become dumb, which speak insolently against the righteous in pride and contempt.  

 

 

-

19


 

  [Oh] how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, [which] thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee, before the sons of men!  

 

 

-

20


 

  Thou keepest them concealed in the secret of thy presence from the conspiracies of man; thou hidest them in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Blessed be Jehovah; for he hath shewn me wondrously his loving-kindness in a strong city.  

 

 

-

22


 

  As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes; nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.  

 

 

-

23


 

  Love Jehovah, all ye his saints. Jehovah preserveth the faithful, and plentifully requiteth the proud doer.  

 

 

-

24


 

  Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all ye that hope in Jehovah.
