TRV
Psalms 31:2-13
2
Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.
3
For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.
4
Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.
5
Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.
6
I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.
7
I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;
8
And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.
9
¶ Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.
10
For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.
11
I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.
12
I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
13
For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
