Psalm 31:1-8

Tree of Life Version

¹ For the music director, a psalm of David.
² In You, Adonai, have I taken refuge:
Let me never be put to shame.
In Your righteousness, deliver me.
³ Turn Your ear to me, rescue me quickly.
Be a rock of refuge for me, a stronghold for my deliverance.
⁴ Since You are my rock and my fortress,
You lead me and guide me for Your Name’s sake.
⁵ Free me from the net they hid for me,
for You are my refuge.
⁶ Into Your hand I commit my spirit.^[a]
You have redeemed me, Adonai, God of truth.
⁷ I detest those who continue to watch worthless idols,
but I trust in Adonai.
⁸ I will be glad and rejoice in Your lovingkindness,
for You saw my affliction.
You knew the troubles of my soul.
