Psalm 31:19-24

Tree of Life Version

¹⁹ Let the lying lips be mute.
For they speak arrogantly against the righteous,
    with pride and contempt.
²⁰ How great is Your goodness,
which You have stored up for those who fear You,
which You have given to those who take refuge in You,
    before the children of men.
²¹ In the shelter of Your presence
You hide them from people’s plots.
You conceal them in a sukkah
from the strife of tongues.
²² Blessed be Adonai,
    for He has shown me His wonderful love
    in a besieged city.
²³ I said in my alarm,
“I have been cut off from Your sight!”
But You heard the sound of my pleas
    when I cried out to You.
²⁴ Love Adonai, all His kedoshim!
Adonai preserves all the faithful,
but the proud He pays back in full.
