Psalm 31 ... In you, Adonai, I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
in your justice, save me!
Turn your ear toward me,
come quickly to my rescue,
be for me a rock of strength,
a fortress to keep me safe.
Since you are my rock and fortress,
lead me and guide me for your name’s sake.
Free me from the net they have hidden to catch me,
because you are my strength.
Into your hand I commit my spirit;
you will redeem me, Adonai, God of truth.
I hate those who serve worthless idols;
as for me, I trust in Adonai.
I will rejoice and be glad in your grace,
for you see my affliction,
you know how distressed I am.
You did not hand me over to the enemy;
you set my feet where I can move freely.
Show me favor, Adonai, for I am in trouble.
My eyes grow dim with anger,
my soul and body as well.
For my life is worn out with sorrow
and my years with sighing;
my strength gives out under my guilt,
and my bones are wasting away.
