engLXXup: Psalms 30

=> Chapters

 [1] For the end, a Psalm of David, an utterance of extreme fear.

[2] O Lord, I have hoped in thee; let me never be ashamed:

Deliver me in thy righteousness and rescue me.

[3] Incline thine ear to me;

Make haste to rescue me:

Be thou to me for a protecting God,

And for a house of refuge to save me.

[4] For thou art my strength and my refuge;

And thou shalt guide me for thy name’s sake, and maintain me.

[5] Thou shalt bring me out of the snare which they have hidden for me;

For thou, O Lord, art my defender.

[6] Into thy hands I will commit my spirit:

Thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.

[7] Thou hast hated them that idly persist in vanities:

But I have hoped in the Lord.

[8] I will exult and be glad in thy mercy:

For thou hast looked upon mine affliction;

Thou hast saved my soul from distresses.

[9] And thou hast not shut me up into the hands of the enemy:

Thou hast set my feet in a wide place.

[10] Pity me, O Lord, for I am afflicted:

My eye is troubled with indignation,

My soul and my belly.

[11] For my life is spent with grief,

And my years with groanings:

My strength has been weakened through poverty,

And my bones are troubled.

[12] I became a reproach among all mine enemies,

But exceedingly so to my neighbors,

And a fear to mine acquaintance:

They that saw me without fled from me.

[13] I have been forgotten as a dead man out of mind:

I am become as a broken vessel.

[14] For I heard the slander of many that dwelt round about:

When they were gathered together against me,

They took counsel to take my life.

[15] But I hoped in thee, O Lord:

I said, Thou art my God.

[16] My lots are in thy hands:

Deliver me from the hand of mine enemies,

[17] And from them that persecute me.

Make thy face to shine upon thy servant:

Save me in thy mercy.

[18] O Lord, let me not be ashamed, for I have called upon thee:

Let the ungodly be ashamed, and brought down to Hades.

[19] Let the deceitful lips become dumb,

Which speak iniquity against the righteous

With pride and scorn.

[20] How abundant is the multitude of thy goodness, O Lord,

Which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee!

Thou hast wrought it out for them that hope on thee,

In the presence of the sons of men.

[21] Thou wilt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the vexation of man:

Thou wilt screen them in a tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.

[22] Blessed be the Lord: for he has magnified his mercy in a fortified city.

[23] But I said in my extreme fear,

I am cast out from the sight of thine eyes:

Therefore thou didst hearken, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication

When I cried to thee.

[24] Love the Lord, all ye his saints:

For the Lord seeks for truth,

And renders a reward to them that deal very proudly.

[25] Be of good courage, and let your heart be strengthened,

All ye that hope in the Lord.
