Psalm 31 :: King James Version (KJV)

A Psalm of Complaint and of Praise.

Psa 31:1[[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

Psa 31:2

Psa 31:2Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.

Psa 31:3

Psa 31:3For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.

Psa 31:4

Psa 31:4Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.

Psa 31:5

Psa 31:5Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.

Psa 31:6

Psa 31:6I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.

Psa 31:7

Psa 31:7I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;

Psa 31:8

Psa 31:8And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

Psa 31:9

Psa 31:9Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.

Psa 31:10

Psa 31:10For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

Psa 31:11

Psa 31:11I 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.

Psa 31:12

Psa 31:12I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

Psa 31:13

Psa 31:13For 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.

Psa 31:14

Psa 31:14But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.

Psa 31:15

Psa 31:15My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

Psa 31:16

Psa 31:16Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake.

Psa 31:17

Psa 31:17Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.

Psa 31:18

Psa 31:18Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

Psa 31:19

Psa 31:19Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

Psa 31:20

Psa 31:20Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

Psa 31:21

Psa 31:21Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.

Psa 31:22

Psa 31:22For 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.

Psa 31:23

Psa 31:23O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

Psa 31:24

Psa 31:24Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
