Psalms 31:1-8

1Lord, I seek refuge in you; let me never be disgraced. Save me by your righteousness.

2Listen closely to me; rescue me quickly. Be a rock of refuge for me, a mountain fortress to save me.

3For you are my rock and my fortress; you lead and guide me for your name’s sake.

4You will free me from the net that is secretly set for me, for you are my refuge.

5Into your hand I entrust my spirit; you have redeemed me, Lord, God of truth.

6I hate those who are devoted to worthless idols, but I trust in the Lord.

7I will rejoice and be glad in your faithful love because you have seen my affliction. You know the troubles of my soul

8and have not handed me over to the enemy. You have set my feet in a spacious place.
