Psalm 31

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 (30-1) <Unto the end, a psalm for David, in an ecstasy.> (30-2) In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.

2 (30-3) Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me. Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.

3 (30-4) For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name’s sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.

4 (30-5) Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.

5 (30-6) Into thy hands I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.

6 (30-7) Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord:

7 (30-8) I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou hast regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.

8 (30-9) And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.

9 (30-10) Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

10 (30-11) For my life is wasted with grief: and my years in sighs. My strength is weakened through poverty and my bones are disturbed.

11 (30-12) I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; and a fear to my acquaintance. They that saw me without fled from me.

12 (30-13) I am forgotten as one dead from the heart. I am become as a vessel that is destroyed.

13 (30-14) For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about. While they assembled together against me, they consulted to take away my life.

14 (30-15) But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my God.

15 (30-16) My lots are in thy hands. Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; and from them that persecute me.

16 (30-17) Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy.

17 (30-18) Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell.

18 (30-19) Let deceitful lips be made dumb. Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.

19 (30-20) O how great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee! Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, in the sight of the sons of men.

20 (30-21) Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, from the disturbance of men. Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle form the contradiction of tongues.

21 (30-22) Blessed be the Lord, for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.

22 (30-23) But I said in the excess of my mind: I am cast away from before thy eyes. Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, when I cried to thee.

23 (30-24) O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.

24 (30-25) Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.

New Living Translation NLT

1 O LORD, I have come to you for protection; don’t let me be disgraced. Save me, for you do what is right.

2 Turn your ear to listen to me; rescue me quickly. Be my rock of protection, a fortress where I will be safe.

3 You are my rock and my fortress. For the honor of your name, lead me out of this danger.

4 Pull me from the trap my enemies set for me, for I find protection in you alone.

5 I entrust my spirit into your hand. Rescue me, LORD, for you are a faithful God.

6 I hate those who worship worthless idols. I trust in the LORD .

7 I will be glad and rejoice in your unfailing love, for you have seen my troubles, and you care about the anguish of my soul.

8 You have not handed me over to my enemies but have set me in a safe place.

9 Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am in distress. Tears blur my eyes. My body and soul are withering away.

10 I am dying from grief; my years are shortened by sadness. Sin has drained my strength; I am wasting away from within.

11 I am scorned by all my enemies and despised by my neighbors— even my friends are afraid to come near me. When they see me on the street, they run the other way.

12 I am ignored as if I were dead, as if I were a broken pot.

13 I have heard the many rumors about me, and I am surrounded by terror. My enemies conspire against me, plotting to take my life.

14 But I am trusting you, O LORD, saying, “You are my God!”

15 My future is in your hands. Rescue me from those who hunt me down relentlessly.

16 Let your favor shine on your servant. In your unfailing love, rescue me.

17 Don’t let me be disgraced, O LORD, for I call out to you for help. Let the wicked be disgraced; let them lie silent in the grave.

18 Silence their lying lips— those proud and arrogant lips that accuse the godly.

19 How great is the goodness you have stored up for those who fear you. You lavish it on those who come to you for protection, blessing them before the watching world.

20 You hide them in the shelter of your presence, safe from those who conspire against them. You shelter them in your presence, far from accusing tongues.

21 Praise the LORD, for he has shown me the wonders of his unfailing love. He kept me safe when my city was under attack.

22 In panic I cried out, “I am cut off from the LORD !” But you heard my cry for mercy and answered my call for help.

23 Love the LORD, all you godly ones! For the LORD protects those who are loyal to him, but he harshly punishes the arrogant.

24 So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the LORD !
