Psalms 31:1-10 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. In you, O Yahweh, I have taken refuge. Let me not be put to shame ever. Deliver me by your righteousness.

2. Incline your ear to me. Quickly deliver me. Become my rock of refuge, a fortified keep to save me.

3. For you are my rock and my fortress. So, for the sake of your name, lead me and guide me.

4. Bring me out of the net that they have secretly set for me, for you are my refuge.

5. Into your hand I commit my spirit. You have redeemed me, O Yahweh, faithful God.

6. I hate those devoted to useless idols, but I trust Yahweh.

7. I will exult and rejoice in your loyal love. Because you have seen my misery, you know the distresses of my life.

8. And you have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy. You have set my feet in a broad place.

9. Be gracious to me, O Yahweh, because I have distress. My eye wastes away because of vexation, along with my soul and my body.

10. For my life is at an end with sorrow, and my years with sighing. My strength stumbles because of my iniquity, and my bones waste away.
