Psalms

Chapter 31

1 In you, O Jehovah/God,
do I put my trust.

Let me never be ashamed.

Deliver me in your righteousness.

2 Bow down your ear to me.

Deliver me speedily.

Be you my strong rock,
for an house of defense to save me.

3 For You are my rock and my fortress;
therefore for Your name's sake lead me,
and guide me.

4 Pull me out of the net
that they have laid privily for me . . .
for You are my strength.

{The full text of the last sentence of Jehovah/God on the Cross}
5~~"Into Your hands I deposit My spirit.
For You have delivered Me, O Jehovah/God. . .
'Elohiym/Godhead of truth/'true doctrine'."

6 I have hated those who regard lying vanities . . .
but I trust in Jehovah/God.

7 I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy . . .
for You have considered my trouble . . .
You have known my soul in adversities.

8 And have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy.

You have set my feet in a large room.

9 Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah/God,
for I am in trouble.

My eye is consumed with grief,
yes, my soul and my belly/emotions.

10 For my life is spent with grief,
and my years with sighing.

My strength fails because of my iniquity,
and my bones are consumed.

11 I was a reproach among all my enemies,
but especially among my neighbors,
and a fear to my acquaintance . . .
they that did see me outside
fled from me.

12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind.

I am like a broken vessel.

13 For 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.

14 But I trusted in you, O Jehovah/God.

I said, You are my 'Elohiym/Godhead.

15 My times are in your hand.

Deliver me from the hand of my enemies,
and from those who persecute me.

16 Make Your face to shine upon Your servant.

Save me for Your mercies' sake.

17 Let me not be ashamed, O Jehovah/God;
for I have called upon you.

Let the wicked be ashamed,
and let them be silent in Sheol/'the grave'/Hades.

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

19 Oh how great is Your goodness,
which you have laid up for those who fear You
which You have wrought
for those who trust in you before the sons of men!

20 You shall hide them in the secret of your presence
from the pride of man.

You shall keep them secretly in a pavilion
from the strife of tongues.

21 Blessed be Jehovah/God. . .
for He has showed me His marvelous kindness in a strong city.

22 For I said in my haste,
I am cut off from before Your eyes.

Nevertheless You heard
the voice of my supplications
when I cried unto you.

23~~ O love Jehovah/God,
all you his Godly ones.

For Jehovah/God preserves the faithful {mature believer}
but he fully pays a proud reversionist.

24~~Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart/'right lobe',
all you who have confidence/hope in Jehovah/God.
