Psalms 31:15-24 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

15. My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

16. Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me in thy lovingkindness.

17. Let me not he ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, let them be silent in Sheol.

18. Let the lying lips be dumb; which speak against the righteous insolently, with pride and contempt.

19. Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, which thou hast wrought for them that put their trust in thee, before the sons of men!

20. In the covert of thy presence shalt thou hide them from the plottings of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

21. Blessed be the Lord: for he hath shewed me his marvelous lovingkindness in a strong city.

22. As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

23. O love the Lord, all ye his saints: the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

24. Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all ye that hope in the Lord.
