Psalms 31 — Context

For you are my Rock and my strong tower; go in front of me and be my guide, because of your name.

Take me out of the net which they have put ready for me secretly; for you are my strength.

Into your hands I give my spirit; you are my saviour, O Lord God for ever true.

I am full of hate for those who go after false gods; but my hope is in the Lord.

I will be glad and have delight in your mercy; because you have seen my trouble; you have had pity on my soul in its sorrows;

And you have not given me into the hand of my hater; you have put my feet in a wide place.

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am in trouble; my eyes are wasted with grief, I am wasted in soul and body.
