New Testament

Psalm 31:1-8 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. Lord, I have gone to you for safety. Don't let me ever be put to shame. Save me, because you do what is right.

2. Pay attention to me. Come quickly to help me. Be the rock I go to for safety. Be the strong fort that saves me.

3. You are my rock and my fort. Lead me and guide me for the honor of your name.

4. Free me from the trap that is set for me. You are my place of safety.

5. Into your hands I commit my very life. Lord, set me free. You are my faithful God.

6. I hate those who worship worthless statues of gods. I trust in the Lord.

7. I will be glad and full of joy because you love me. You saw that I was hurting. You took note of my great pain.

8. You have not handed me over to the enemy. You have put me in a wide and safe place.
