Psalms 31:15-20

15My timesH6256 are in thy handH3027: deliverH5337 me from the handH3027 of mine enemiesH341, and from them that persecuteH7291 me.

16Make thy faceH6440 to shineH215 upon thy servantH5650: saveH3467 me for thy mercies’H2617 sake.

17Let me not be ashamedH954, O YhwhH3068; for I have calledH7121 upon thee: let the wickedH7563 be ashamedH954, and let them be silentH1826 in the graveH7585.1

18Let the lyingH8267 lipsH8193 be put to silenceH481; which speakH1696 grievousH6277 things proudlyH1346 and contemptuouslyH937 against the righteousH6662.2

19Oh how greatH7227 is thy goodnessH2898, which thou hast laid upH6845 for them that fearH3373 thee; which thou hast wroughtH6466 for them that trustH2620 in thee before the sonsH1121 of menH120!

20Thou shalt hideH5641 them in the secretH5643 of thy presenceH6440 from the prideH7407 of manH376: thou shalt keep them secretlyH6845 in a pavilionH5521 from the strifeH7379 of tonguesH3956.
