Psalms 31:19-24

19You have prepared many good things to bless people who respect you. While everyone watches, you bless those who come to you for help.

20You give them a place to hide, and you keep them safe with you. When their enemies want to attack them, you take care of them. When their enemies speak lies against them, they are safe with you.

21Praise the Lord! When my enemies were all around me, he showed me that his faithful love is very great.

22When I was afraid, I said, ‘God is no longer with me!’ But I spoke too soon. When I called to you for help, you heard me and you answered me.

23Love the Lord, all you people who belong to him! If people serve the Lord faithfully, he keeps them safe. But if people are proud, he punishes them as they deserve.

24All you people who trust the Lord to help you, you should be strong and very brave!
