Psalms 31:19-23

¹⁹How wonderful is the goodness you have reserved for those who honor you! In front of everyone you give this goodness to those who come to you for help.

²⁰You shelter and protect them with your presence, far from their enemies who scheme against them. You keep them safe from attacks and accusations.

²¹Bless the Lord, for he has shown me his wonderful trustworthy love when my city was being attacked

²²Terrified I cried out, “I am being destroyed right in front of you!” But you heard my cry when I called out for you to help me.

²³Love the Lord, all you who trust in him! The Lord takes care of those who trust him, but he pays back in full those who are arrogant.
