Psalms 31 (kjv)

To the chief Musician^H5329, A Psalm^H4210 of David^H1732. In thee, O LORD^H3068, do I put my trust^H2620; let me never^{H408 H5769} be ashamed^H954: deliver^H6403 me in thy righteousness^H6666.²Bow down^H5186 thine ear^H241 to me; deliver^H5337 me speedily^H4120: be thou my strong^H4581 rock^H6697, for an house^H1004 of defence^H4686 to save^H3467 me.³For thou art my rock^H5553 and my fortress^H4686; therefore for thy name's^H8034 sake lead^H5148 me, and guide^H5095 me.⁴Pull me out^H3318 of the net^H7568 that^H2098 they have laid privily^H2934 for me: for thou art my strength^H4581.⁵Into thine hand^H3027 I commit^H6485 my spirit^H7307: thou hast redeemed^H6299 me, O LORD^H3068 God^H410 of truth^H571.⁶I have hated^H8130 them that regard^H8104 lying^H7723 vanities^H1892: but I trust^H982 in the LORD^H3068.

⁷I will be glad^H1523 and rejoice^H8055 in thy mercy^H2617: for thou hast considered^H7200 my trouble^H6040; thou hast known^H3045 my soul^H5315 in adversities^H6869;⁸And hast not shut me up^H5462 into the hand^H3027 of the enemy^H341: thou hast set^H5975 my feet^H7272 in a large room^H4800.

⁹Have mercy^H2603 upon me, O LORD^H3068, for I am in trouble^H6887: mine eye^H5869 is consumed^H6244 with grief^H3708, yea, my soul^H5315 and my belly^H990.¹⁰For my life^H2416 is spent^H3615 with grief^H3015, and my years^H8141 with sighing^H585: my strength^H3581 faileth^H3782 because of mine iniquity^H5771, and my bones^H6106 are consumed^H6244.¹¹I was a reproach^H2781 among all mine enemies^H6887, but especially^H3966 among my neighbours^H7934, and a fear^H6343 to mine acquaintance^H3045: they that did see^H7200 me without^H2351 fled^H5074 from me.¹²I am forgotten^H7911 as a dead man^H4191 out of mind^H3820: I am like a broken^H6 vessel^H3627.¹³For I have heard^H8085 the slander^H1681 of many^H7227: fear^H4032 was on every side^H5439: while they took counsel^H3245 together^H3162 against me, they devised^H2161 to take away^H3947 my life^H5315.¹⁴But I trusted^H982 in thee, O LORD^H3068: I said^H559, Thou art my God^H430.¹⁵My times^H6256 are in thy hand^H3027: deliver^H5337 me from the hand^H3027 of mine enemies^H341, and from them that persecute^H7291 me.¹⁶Make thy face^H6440 to shine^H215 upon thy servant^H5650: save^H3467 me for thy mercies^H2617' sake.¹⁷Let me not be ashamed^H954, O LORD^H3068; for I have called^H7121 upon thee: let the wicked^H7563 be ashamed^H954, and let them be silent^H1826 in the grave^H7585.¹⁸Let the lying^H8267 lips^H8193 be put to silence^H481; which speak^H1696 grievous^H6277 things proudly^H1346 and contemptuously^H937 against the righteous^H6662.

¹⁹Oh how great^H7227 is thy goodness^H2898, which thou hast laid up^H6845 for them that fear^H3373 thee; which thou hast wrought^H6466 for them that trust^H2620 in thee before the sons^H1121 of men^H120!²⁰Thou shalt hide^H5641 them in the secret^H5643 of thy presence^H6440 from the pride^H7407 of man^H376: thou shalt keep them secretly^H6845 in a pavilion^H5521 from the strife^H7379 of tongues^H3956.²¹Blessed^H1288 be the LORD^H3068: for he hath shewed me his marvellous^H6381 kindness^H2617 in a strong^H4692 city^H5892.²²For I said^H559 in my haste^H2648, I am cut off^H1629 from before^H5048 thine eyes^H5869: nevertheless^H403 thou heardest^H8085 the voice^H6963 of my supplications^H8469 when I cried^H7768 unto thee.²³O love^H157 the LORD^H3068, all ye his saints^H2623: for the LORD^H3068 preserveth^H5341 the faithful^H539, and plentifully^H3499 rewardeth^H7999 the proud^H1346 doer^H6213.²⁴Be of good courage^H2388, and he shall strengthen^H553 your heart^H3824, all ye that hope^H3176 in the LORD^H3068.
