Psalms 31:1-19

31:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)_,

A Psalm
<04210>

of David
<01732>.>>

In thee, O LORD
<03068>_,

do I put my trust
<02620> (8804)_;

let me never
<0408> <05769>

be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_:

deliver
<06403> (8761)

me in thy righteousness
<06666>_.

31:2

Bow down
<05186> (8685)

thine ear
<0241>

to me; deliver
<05337> (8685)

me speedily
<04120>_:

be thou my strong
<04581>

rock
<06697>_,

for an house
<01004>

of defence
<04686>

to save
<03467> (8687)

me. {my...: Heb. to me for rock of strength}

31:3

For thou [art] my rock
<05553>

and my fortress
<04686>_;

therefore for thy name's
<08034>

sake lead
<05148> (8686)

me, and guide
<05095> (8762)

me.

31:4

Pull me out
<03318> (8686)

of the net
<07568>

that
<02098>

they have laid privily
<02934> (8804)

for me: for thou [art] my strength
<04581>_.

31:5

Into thine hand
<03027>

I commit
<06485> (8686)

my spirit
<07307>_:

thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)

me, O LORD
<03068>

God
<0410>

of truth
<0571>_.

31:6

I have hated
<08130> (8804)

them that regard
<08104> (8802)

lying
<07723>

vanities
<01892>_:

but I trust
<0982> (8804)

in the LORD
<03068>_.

31:7

I will be glad
<01523> (8799)

and rejoice
<08055> (8799)

in thy mercy
<02617>_:

for thou hast considered
<07200> (8804)

my trouble
<06040>_;

thou hast known
<03045> (8804)

my soul
<05315>

in adversities
<06869>_;

31:8

And hast not shut me up
<05462> (8689)

into the hand
<03027>

of the enemy
<0341> (8802)_:

thou hast set
<05975> (8689)

my feet
<07272>

in a large room
<04800>_.

31:9

Have mercy
<02603> (8798)

upon me, O LORD
<03068>_,

for I am in trouble
<06887> (8804)_:

mine eye
<05869>

is consumed
<06244> (8804)

with grief
<03708>_,

[yea], my soul
<05315>

and my belly
<0990>_.

31:10

For my life
<02416>

is spent
<03615> (8804)

with grief
<03015>_,

and my years
<08141>

with sighing
<0585>_:

my strength
<03581>

faileth
<03782> (8804)

because of mine iniquity
<05771>_,

and my bones
<06106>

are consumed
<06244> (8804)_.

31:11

I was a reproach
<02781>

among all mine enemies
<06887> (8802)_,

but especially
<03966>

among my neighbours
<07934>_,

and a fear
<06343>

to mine acquaintance
<03045> (8794)_:

they that did see
<07200> (8802)

me without
<02351>

fled
<05074> (8804)

from me.

31:12

I am forgotten
<07911> (8738)

as a dead man
<04191> (8801)

out of mind
<03820>_:

I am like a broken
<06> (8802)

vessel
<03627>_.

{a broken...: Heb. a vessel that perisheth}

31:13

For I have heard
<08085> (8804)

the slander
<01681>

of many
<07227>_:

fear
<04032>

[was] on every side
<05439>_:

while they took counsel
<03245> (8736)

together
<03162>

against me, they devised
<02161> (8804)

to take away
<03947> (8800)

my life
<05315>_.

31:14

But I trusted
<0982> (8804)

in thee, O LORD
<03068>_:

I said
<0559> (8804)_,

Thou [art] my God
<0430>_.

31:15

My times
<06256>

[are] in thy hand
<03027>_:

deliver
<05337> (8685)

me from the hand
<03027>

of mine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and from them that persecute
<07291> (8802)

me.

31:16

Make thy face
<06440>

to shine
<0215> (8685)

upon thy servant
<05650>_:

save
<03467> (8685)

me for thy mercies
<02617>_'

sake.

31:17

Let me not be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,

O LORD
<03068>_;

for I have called
<07121> (8804)

upon thee: let the wicked
<07563>

be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,

[and] let them be silent
<01826> (8799)

in the grave
<07585>_.

{silent...: or, cut off for}

31:18

Let the lying
<08267>

lips
<08193>

be put to silence
<0481> (8735)_;

which speak
<01696> (8802)

grievous
<06277>

things proudly
<01346>

and contemptuously
<0937>

against the righteous
<06662>_.

{grievous...: Heb. a hard thing}

31:19

[Oh] how great
<07227>

[is] thy goodness
<02898>_,

which thou hast laid up
<06845> (8804)

for them that fear
<03373>

thee; [which] thou hast wrought
<06466> (8804)

for them that trust
<02620> (8802)

in thee before the sons
<01121>

of men
<0120>_!
