ABP - Psalms - 31

31:1  Upon you, O lord, I hoped. May I not be disgraced into the eon. In your righteousness rescue me, and take me out!

31:2  Lean [2to 3me 1your ear]! Hasten to take me out! Become to me as a defending God! and for a house of refuge to deliver me.

31:3  For [2my fortification 3and 4my refuge 1you are]; and because of your name you shall guide me and nourish me.

31:4  You shall lead me out of the snare which these hid for me; for you are my defender, O lord.

31:5  Into your hands I shall place my spirit. You ransomed me, O lord God of truth.

31:6  You detested the ones guarding [2follies 1ineffectual]. But I [2upon 3the 4 lord 1hoped].

31:7  I will exult and be glad over your mercy, for you looked upon my humiliation. You delivered [2from 3the wants 4of necessities 1my soul];

31:8  and you did not close me up by hands of enemies. You set [2in 3a broad space 1my feet].

31:9  Show mercy on me, O lord! for I am afflicted. [5are disturbed 6in 7rage 1My eye 2my soul 3and 4my belly];

31:10  for [2failed 3in 4grief 1my life], and my years in moanings. [2weakened 3in 4poorness 1My strength], and my bones are disturbed.

31:11  By all my enemies I became a scorn, even to my neighbors exceedingly so, and a fear to my acquaintances. The ones viewing me outside fled from me.

31:12  I was forgotten as one dead from the heart; I am become as a vessel being destroyed.

31:13  For I heard the fault of many sojourning round about. In their gathering together against me [2to take 3my soul 1they consulted].

31:14  But I [2upon 3you 4O lord 1hoped]. I said, You are my God.

31:15  [2are in 3your hands 1My lots]. Rescue me from the hand of my enemies, and from the ones pursuing me!

31:16  Let [2appear 1your face] unto your servant! Deliver me in your mercy!

31:17  O lord, may I not be disgraced, for I called upon you. May [3be ashamed 1the 2impious], and led down into Hades.

31:18  [7speechless 1Let 6become 2the 3lips 4of the 5deceitful]! even the ones speaking against the just in lawlessness with pride and contempt.

31:19  How abundant is the multitude of your graciousness, O lord, of which you hid to the ones fearing you. You brought it to completion to the ones hoping upon you, before the sons of men.

31:20  You shall hide them in the concealment of your face from the disturbance of men. You shall shelter them in a tent from the dispute of tongues.

31:21  Blessed be the lord, for [2caused wonders 1his mercy] in the city encompassed about.

31:22  But I said in my change of state, I am thrown away from in front of your eyes. On account of this you heard of the voice of my supplication in my crying out to you.

31:23  Let [3love 4the 5 lord 1all 2his sacred ones]! For [3truth 2requires 1the lord]; and he recompenses [2to the ones 1extremely] having pride.

31:24  Let [6be manly 7and 8be fortified 9in 10your heart 1all 2the ones 3hoping 4upon 5the lord]!
