Psalms‬ ‭31‬:‭7-8, 14-16, 19-20, 22-23

Your kindness makes me so happy. You have seen my suffering. You know about the troubles I have. You will not let my enemies take me. You will free me from their traps.

Lord, I trust in you. You are my God. My life is in your hands. Save me from those who are persecuting me. Please welcome and accept your servant. Be kind to me and save me.

Lord, you have hidden away many wonderful things for your followers. You have done so many good things for those who trust in you. You have blessed them so that all the world can see. Others make plans to hurt them. They say such bad things about them. But you hide your people in your shelter and protect them.

I was afraid and said, “I am in a place where he cannot see me.” But I prayed to you, and you heard my loud cries for help. Love the Lord, all of you who are his loyal followers. The Lord protects those who are loyal to him. But he punishes those who brag about their own power. He gives them all the punishment they deserve. (‭Psalms‬ ‭31‬:‭7-8, 14-16, 19-20, 22-23‬ ERV)
