31:1 To
the
chiefe
Musician,
A
Psalme
of
Dauid.
In
thee,
O
Lord,
doe
I
put
my
trust,
let
me
neuer
be
ashamed:
deliuer
me
in
thy
righteousnesse.
31:2 Bowe
downe
thine
eare
to
me,
deliuer
me
speedily:
be
thou
my
strong
rocke,
for
an
house
of
defence
to
saue
me.
31:3 For
thou
art
my
rocke
and
my
fortresse:
therfore
for
thy
names
sake
lead
me,
and
guide
me.
31:4 Pull
me
out
of
the
net,
that
they
haue
layd
priuily
for
me:
for
thou
art
my
strength.
31:5 Into
thine
hand
I
commit
my
spirit:
thou
hast
redeemed
mee,
O
Lord
God
of
trueth.
31:6 I
haue
hated
them
that
regard
lying
vanities:
but
I
trust
in
the
Lord.
31:7 I
will
be
glad,
and
reioyce
in
thy
mercie:
for
thou
hast
considered
my
trouble;
thou
hast
knowen
my
soule
in
aduersities;
31:8 And
hast
not
shut
me
vp
into
the
hand
of
the
enemie:
thou
hast
set
my
feete
in
a
large
roome.
31:9 Haue
mercy
vpon
me,
O
Lord,
for
I
am
in
trouble;
mine
eie
is
consumed
with
griefe,
yea
my
soule
and
my
belly.
31:10 For
my
life
is
spent
with
griefe,
and
my
yeeres
with
sighing:
my
strength
faileth,
because
of
mine
iniquitie,
and
my
bones
are
consumed.
31:11 I
was
a
reproch
among
all
mine
enemies,
but
especially
among
my
neighbours,
and
a
feare
to
mine
acquaintance:
they
that
did
see
me
without,
fled
from
me.
31:12 I
am
forgotten
as
a
dead
man
out
of
minde:
I
am
like
a
broken
vessell.
31:13 For
I
haue
heard
the
slaunder
of
many,
feare
was
on
euery
side:
while
they
tooke
counsell
together
against
me,
they
deuised
to
take
away
my
life.
31:14 But
I
trusted
in
thee,
O
Lord:
I
sayd,
Thou
art
my
God.
31:15 My
times
are
in
thy
hand:
deliuer
me
from
the
hand
of
mine
enemies,
and
from
them
that
persecute
me.
31:16 Make
thy
face
to
shine
vpon
thy
seruant:
saue
me
for
thy
mercies
sake.
31:17 Let
mee
not
be
ashamed,
O
Lord,
for
I
haue
called
vpon
thee:
let
the
wicked
be
ashamed,
and
let
them
be
silent
in
the
graue.
31:18 Let
the
lying
lippes
be
put
to
silence:
which
speake
grieuous
things
proudly
and
contemptuously
against
the
righteous.
31:19 O
how
great
is
thy
goodnesse,
which
thou
hast
layd
vp
for
them
that
feare
thee:
which
thou
hast
wrought
for
them
that
trust
in
thee,
before
the
sonnes
of
men!
31:20 Thou
shalt
hide
them
in
the
secret
of
thy
presence,
from
the
pride
of
man:
thou
shalt
keepe
them
secretly
in
a
pauilion,
from
the
strife
of
tongues.
31:21 Blessed
be
the
Lord;
for
hee
hath
shewed
me
his
maruellous
kindnesse,
in
a
strong
citie.
31:22 For
I
sayd
in
my
haste,
I
am
cut
off
from
before
thine
eies:
Neuerthelesse
thou
heardest
the
voice
of
my
supplications,
when
I
cryed
vnto
thee.
31:23 O
loue
the
Lord,
all
yee
his
Saints:
for
the
Lord
preserueth
the
faithfull,
and
plentifully
rewardeth
the
proud
doer.
31:24 Be
of
good
courage,
and
hee
shall
strenghten
your
heart:
all
ye
that
hope
in
the
Lord.
