Psalms 31

TMB

GW

1 <<To the chief musician: A Psalm of David.>> In Thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed; deliver me in Thy righteousness.
1 I have taken refuge in you, O LORD. Never let me be put to shame. Save me because of your righteousness.
2 Bow down Thine ear to me, deliver me speedily; be Thou my strong rock, a house of defense to save me.
2 Turn your ear toward me. Rescue me quickly. Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me.
3 For Thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for the sake of Thy name, lead me and guide me.
3 Indeed, you are my rock and my fortress. For the sake of your name, lead me and guide me.
4 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me, for Thou art my strength.
4 You are my refuge, so pull me out of the net that they have secretly laid for me.
5 Into Thine hand I commit my spirit; Thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.
5 Into your hands I entrust my spirit. You have rescued me, O LORD, God of truth.
6 I have hated them that have regard for lying vanities; but I trust in the LORD.
6 I hate those who cling to false gods, but I trust the LORD.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in Thy mercy, for Thou hast considered my trouble. Thou hast known my soul in adversities,
7 I will rejoice and be glad because of your mercy. You have seen my misery. You have known the troubles in my soul.
8 And hast not delivered me into the hands of the enemy; Thou hast set my feet in a large room.
8 You have not handed me over to the enemy. You have set my feet in a place where I can move freely.
9 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble; mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.
9 Have pity on me, O LORD, because I am in distress. My eyes, my soul, and my body waste away from grief.
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.
10 My life is exhausted from sorrow, my years from groaning. My strength staggers under [the weight of] my guilt, and my bones waste away.
11 I am a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbors, and a fear to mine acquaintances; they that see me in the streets flee from me.
11 I have become a disgrace because of all my opponents. I have become someone dreaded by my friends, even by my neighbors. Those who see me on the street run away from me.
12 I am forgotten as a dead man, out of mind; I am like a broken vessel.
12 I have faded from memory as if I were dead and have become like a piece of broken pottery.
13 For I have heard the slander of many; fear was on every side; while they took counsel together against me, they schemed to take away my life.
13 I have heard the whispering of many people-- terror on every side-- while they made plans together against me. They were plotting to take my life.
14 But I have trusted in Thee, O LORD; I said, "Thou art my God."
14 I trust you, O LORD. I said, "You are my God."
15 My times are in Thy hand; deliver me from the hand of mine enemies and from them that persecute me.
15 My future is in your hands. Rescue me from my enemies, from those who persecute me.
16 Make Thy face to shine upon Thy servant; save me for Thy mercies' sake.
16 Smile on me. Save me with your mercy.
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.
17 O LORD, I have called on you, so do not let me be put to shame, Let wicked people be put to shame. Let them be silent in the grave.
18 Let the lying lips be put to silence, which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
18 Let [their] lying lips be speechless, since they speak against righteous people with arrogance and contempt.
19 O 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!
19 Your kindness is so great! You reserve it for those who fear you. Adam's descendants watch as you show it to those who take refuge in you.
20 Thou shalt hide them in the safety of Thy presence from the pride of man; Thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
20 You hide them in the secret place of your presence from those who scheme against them. You keep them in a shelter, safe from quarrelsome tongues.
21 Blessed be the LORD, for He hath shown me His marvelous kindness in a stronghold city!
21 Thank the LORD! He has shown me the miracle of his mercy in a city under attack.
22 For I said in my haste, "I am cut off from before Thine eyes!" Nevertheless Thou heard the voice of my supplications when I cried unto Thee.
22 When I was panic-stricken, I said, "I have been cut off from your sight." But you heard my pleas for mercy when I cried out to you for help.
23 O love the LORD, all ye His saints! For the LORD preserveth the faithful, but plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.
23 Love the LORD, all you godly ones! The LORD protects faithful people, but he pays back in full those who act arrogantly.
24 Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
24 Be strong, all who wait with hope for the LORD, and let your heart be courageous.
