Tehillim (Psalms) 31:1-16

Tehillim (Psalms) 31:1-16 TS2009

In You, O יהוה, I have taken refuge; Let me never be ashamed; Deliver me in Your righteousness. Incline Your ear to me, Deliver me speedily; Be a rock of refuge to me, A house of defence to save me. For You are my rock and my stronghold; For Your Name’s sake lead me and guide me. Bring me out of the net which they have hidden for me, For You are my stronghold. Into Your hand I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O יהוה Ěl of truth. I have hated those who observe lying vanities; But I trust in יהוה. I exult and rejoice in Your loving-commitment, For You have seen my affliction; You have known the distresses of my life, And You have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a large place. Show me favour, O יהוה, for I am in distress; My eye, my being and my body have become old with grief! For my life is consumed in sorrow, And my years in sighing; My strength fails because of my crookedness, And my bones have become old. I am a reproach among all my adversaries, But most of all among my neighbours, And a dread to my friends; Those who see me outside flee from me. I have been forgotten like someone dead from the heart; I have been like a missing vessel. For I hear the evil report of many; Fear is from all around; When they take counsel together against me, They plot to take away my life. But I, I have put my trust in You, O יהוה; I have said, “You are my Elohim.” My times are in Your hand; Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from those who pursue me. Make Your face shine upon Your servant; Save me in Your loving-commitment.
