Psalms 31:5-10 New English Translation (NET)

5. Into your hand I entrust my life;you will rescue me, O Lord, the faithful God.

6. I hate those who serve worthless idols,but I trust in the Lord.

7. I will be happy and rejoice in your faithfulness,because you notice my painand you are aware of how distressed I am.

8. You do not deliver me over to the power of the enemy;you enable me to stand in a wide open place.

9. Have mercy on me, for I am in distress!My eyes grow dim from suffering.I have lost my strength.

10. For my life nears its end in pain;my years draw to a close as I groan.My strength fails me because of my sin,and my bones become brittle.
