But I, I trust in you, Adonai;
I say, “You are my God.”
My times are in your hand;
rescue me from my enemies’ power,
from those who persecute me.
Make your face shine on your servant;
in your grace, save me.
Adonai, don’t let me be put to shame,
for I have called on you;
let the wicked be put to shame,
let them be silenced in Sh’ol.
May lying lips be struck dumb,
that speak insolently against the righteous
with such pride and contempt.
But oh, how great is your goodness,
which you have stored up for those who fear you,
which you do for those who take refuge in you,
before people’s very eyes!
In the shelter of your presence
you hide them from human plots,
you conceal them in your shelter,
safe from contentious tongues.
Blessed be Adonai!
For he has shown me his amazing grace
when I was in a city under siege.
As for me, in my alarm I said,
“I have been cut off from your sight!”
Nevertheless, you heard my pleas
