RF PSA 31:1 To His Bandmaster.
STANZA 1.
I trust to You LORD, without shame;
To Your goodness I always can fly.
RF PSA 31:2 Bend your ear to me, then, from on high,
Become my Deliverer, a tower of strength,
And a fortified house to preserve!
RF PSA 31:3 For you are my Fortress, and rock,
So lead me and guide by Your power.
RF PSA 31:4 Release from the net they have spread;—
For You are my Guardian alone.
RF PSA 31:5 My breath to Your hand I resign,
So redeem me O LORD GOD of Truth.
RF PSA 31:6 STANZA 2.
I have hated the teachers, of empty ideas,
And my trust I have placed in the LORD,—
RF PSA 31:7 In Your mercy I joy and am glad.
Because You have looked on my griefs,
And known of the woes of my life,
RF PSA 31:8 Give not up to the hand of my foe,
But set on my feet, in the plain.
RF PSA 31:9 STANZA 3.
O! pity me, LORD—for my sorrows,
My body, and soul, and my sight waste with grief,
RF PSA 31:10 For by anguish my life is consumed,
And my years are exhausted in sighs;
By sufferings the strength of my body decays.
RF PSA 31:11 I became to my tyrants a jest,
To my neighbors a grief, and a dread to my friends,
Who saw me in public and fled!
RF PSA 31:12 I'm forgot, as the dead from their heart,
I'm become like a vessel disused,
RF PSA 31:13 For I heard the abuse of the mob,
Who conspired around about me,
And plotted to capture my life.
RF PSA 31:14 STANZA 4.
But I have relied upon You,
For, O Life, You are truly my GOD.
RF PSA 31:15 In Your hand is my fate;—set me free
From the power and pursuit of my foes.
RF PSA 31:16 And let Your face smile on Your slave,
And save me for Your mercy's sake.
RF PSA 31:17 O Lord shame me not when I call;
In the silent grave let the bad sink,
RF PSA 31:18 And silence the false-speaking lips,
Bold, proud, and insulting the good.
RF PSA 31:19 For great is the goodness You store,
For Your friends, and the kindnesses done,
By You to the children of Adam!
RF PSA 31:20 You hide in Your presence secure,
You guard them from ruffian men,
And shelter from libelous tongues.
RF PSA 31:21 STANZA 5.
Thank the LORD for His marvellous acts,
A Strong-hold was His kindness to me
RF PSA 31:22 Yet I have exclaimed in my terror,
I shall be cut off in Your sight;—
But You heard the voice of my prayers,
When I to You shouted aloud!—
RF PSA 31:23 So let all His saints love the LORD;
For the faithful the LORD will preserve,—
But repay to the rest their proud acts.
RF PSA 31:24 Take courage! embolden your hearts,
All you who keep watch for the LORD.
