- Chapter 31 -

Into your hands I commend my spirit

(Luke 23:44-49)
1
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. In You, O YHWH, I have trusted, || Do not let me be ashamed for all time, || In Your righteousness deliver me.
2
Incline Your ear to me quickly, deliver me, || Be to me for a strong rock, || For a house of bulwarks to save me.
3
For You [are] my rock and my bulwark, || For Your Name’s sake lead me and tend me.
4
Bring me out from the net that they hid for me, || For You [are] my strength.
5
Into Your hand I commit my spirit, || You have redeemed me, YHWH God of truth.
6
I have hated the observers of lying vanities, || And I have been confident toward YHWH.
7
I rejoice, and am glad in Your kindness, || In that You have seen my affliction, || You have known my soul in adversities.
8
And You have not shut me up, || Into the hand of an enemy, || You have caused my feet to stand in a broad place.
9
Favor me, O YHWH, for distress [is] to me, || My eye, my soul, and my body || Have become old by provocation.
10
For my life has been consumed in sorrow || And my years in sighing. My strength has been feeble because of my iniquity, || And my bones have become old.
11
I have been a reproach among all my adversaries, || And to my neighbors exceedingly, || And a fear to my acquaintances, || Those seeing me without—fled from me.
12
I have been forgotten as dead, out of mind, || I have been as a perishing vessel.
13
For I have heard an evil account of many, || Fear [is] all around. In their being united against me, || They have devised to take my life,
14
And I have trusted on You, || O YHWH, I have said, “You [are] my God.”
15
In Your hand [are] my times, || Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, || And from my pursuers.
16
Cause Your face to shine on Your servant, || Save me in Your kindness.
17
O YHWH, do not let me be ashamed, || For I have called You, let the wicked be ashamed, || Let them become silent to Sheol.
18
Let lips of falsehood become mute, || That are speaking against the righteous, || Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.
19
How abundant is Your goodness, || That You have laid up for those fearing You, || You have worked for those trusting in You, || Before sons of men.
20
You hide them in the secret place of Your presence, || From schemes of man, || You conceal them in a dwelling place, || From the strife of tongues.
21
Blessed [is] YHWH, || For He has made His kindness marvelous || To me in a city of bulwarks.
22
And I have said in my haste, “I have been cut off from before Your eyes,” || But You have heard the voice of my supplications, || In my crying to You.
23
Love YHWH, all you His saints, || YHWH is keeping the faithful, || And repaying a proud doer abundantly.
24
Be strong, and He strengthens your heart, || All you who are waiting for YHWH!
