Contemporary English Version Anglicised

Psalms 31:11-16 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

11. My enemies insult me.Neighbours are even worse,and I disgust my friends.People meet me in the street,and they turn and run.

12. I am completely forgottenlike someone dead.I am merely a broken dish.

13. I hear the crowds whisper,“Everyone is afraid!”They are plotting and schemingto murder me.

14. But I trust you, Lord,and I claim you as my God.

15. My life is in your hands.Save me from enemieswho hunt me down.

16. Smile on me, your servant.Have pity and rescue me.
