Psalms 31:21-24 New English Translation (NET)

21. The Lord deserves praisefor he demonstrated his amazing faithfulness to me when I was besieged by enemies.

22. I jumped to conclusions and said,“I am cut off from your presence!”But you heard my plea for mercy when I cried out to you for help.

23. Love the Lord, all you faithful followers of his!The Lord protects those who have integrity,but he pays back in full the one who acts arrogantly.

24. Be strong and confident,all you who wait on the Lord!
