Psalm 31

A Plea for Protection

For the choir director. A Davidic psalm.

Lord, I seek refuge in You;
let me never be disgraced.(A)
Save me by Your righteousness.
Listen closely to me; rescue me quickly.
Be a rock of refuge for me,
a mountain fortress to save me.(B)
For You are my rock and my fortress;(C)
You lead and guide me
because of Your name.(D)
You will free me from the net
that is secretly set for me,
for You are my refuge.(E)
Into Your hand I entrust my spirit;(F)
You redeem[a] me, Lord, God of truth.(G)
