Psalms 31

Gen Z: Psalms 31

1Yo, I’m trusting you, Lord; don’t let me down, fr. Save me with your rizz.

2Lean in, Lord; scoop me up quick: be my solid rock, my safe spot.

3You’re my rock and fortress; for your name’s vibes, lead and guide me.

4Pull me outta the trap they set for me; you’re my strength, no cap.

5I’m handing my spirit to you, Lord; you’ve saved me, God of truth.

6I can’t stand those who chase lies; I’m all in with the Lord.

7I’m vibin’ and celebrating your mercy; you’ve seen my struggles; you know my soul’s pain.

8You haven’t left me in the enemy’s grip; you’ve set my feet in a chill place.

9Show me mercy, Lord; I’m in a tough spot: my eyes are heavy with sadness, my soul and body too.

10My life’s been all about grief, and I’m sighing hard: my strength’s fading 'cause of my mess-ups, and my bones are shot.

11I’m a joke to my enemies, especially to my neighbors, and they bounce when they see me.

12I’m forgotten like a ghost: just a broken vessel out here.

13I’ve heard all the gossip: fear’s everywhere; they’re plotting against me to take me out.

14But I’m trusting you, Lord: I said, you’re my God.

15My life’s in your hands: save me from my enemies and those who chase me.

16Let your face shine on me, your servant: save me for your mercy’s sake.

17Don’t let me be ashamed, Lord; I called on you: let the wicked feel that shame and stay quiet in the grave.

18Shut down the lying lips that speak harshly and proudly against the good ones.

19Your goodness is epic, stored up for those who fear you; you’ve done great things for those who trust in you before others.

20You’ll hide them in your secret space from the prideful; you’ll keep them safe from the drama.

21Big ups to the Lord: he’s shown me his amazing kindness in a strong city.

22I freaked out and thought I was cut off from you, but you heard my cries, no doubt.

23Love the Lord, all you saints: he keeps it real with the faithful and rewards the bold.

24Stay strong, and he’ll boost your heart, all you who hope in the Lord.

KJV: Psalms 31

1In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

2Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.

3For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me.

4Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.

5Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.

6I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the Lord.

7I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;

8And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

9Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.

10For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

11I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.

12I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

13For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

14But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God.

15My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

16Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies’ sake.

17Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.

18Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

19Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

20Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

21Blessed be the Lord: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.

22For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

23O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

24Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord.
