Psalm 31

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:1} In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:2} Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:3} For thou [art] my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:4} Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou [art] my strength. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:5} Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:6} I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:7} I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:8} And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:9} Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, [yea,] my soul and my belly. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:10} For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:11} I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:12} I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:13} For I have heard the slander of many: fear [was] on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:14} But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou [art] my God. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:15} My times [are] in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of min enemies, and from them that persecute me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:16} Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies’ sake. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:17} Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, [and] let them be silent in the grave. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:18} Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:19} [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! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:20} Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:21} Blessed [be] the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:22} For 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:23} O love the LORD, all ye his saints: [for] the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 31:24} Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
