Psalm 31:1-5, 15-16

In you, Lord, I have taken refuge;

    let me never be put to shame;

    deliver me in your righteousness.

2 

Turn your ear to me,

    come quickly to my rescue;

be my rock of refuge,

    a strong fortress to save me.

3 

Since you are my rock and my fortress,

    for the sake of your name lead and guide me.

4 

Keep me free from the trap that is set for me,

    for you are my refuge.

5 

Into your hands I commit my spirit;

    deliver me, Lord, my faithful God. 

My times are in your hands;

    deliver me from the hands of my enemies,

    from those who pursue me.

16 

Let your face shine on your servant;

    save me in your unfailing love.
