Psalm 31:14-20
New American Standard Bible
14 But as for me, I trust in You, Lord,
I say, “(A)You are my God.”
15 My (B)times are in Your hand;
(C)Rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from those who persecute me.
16 Make Your (D)face shine upon Your servant;
(E)Save me in Your faithfulness.
17 Let me not be (F)put to shame, Lord, for I call upon You;
Let the (G)wicked be put to shame, let them (H)be silent in [a]Sheol.
18 Let the (I)lying lips be speechless,
Which (J)speak arrogantly against the righteous
With pride and contempt.
19 How great is Your (K)goodness,
Which You have stored up for those who fear You,
Which You have performed for those who (L)take refuge in You,
(M)Before the sons of mankind!
20 You hide them in the (N)secret place of Your presence from the (O)conspiracies of mankind;
You keep them secretly in a [b]shelter from the (P)strife of tongues.
