Tehillim 31:19-24 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

19. (20) Oh how great is Thy goodness, which Thou hast stored up for them that fear Thee; which Thou hast wrought for them that take refuge in Thee before the Bnei Adam!

20. (21) Thou shalt hide them b'seter (in the shelter) of Thy presence from the intrigues of ish; Thou shalt keep them safe in a sukkah from the riv l'shonot (the strife of tongues, contentious lashon hora, backbiting, slander).

21. (22) Baruch Hashem! For He hath showed me His wondrous chesed in an Ir Matzor (besieged city).

22. (23) For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before Thine eyes; nevertheless Thou heardest the voice of my tachanun (supplications) when unto Thee I cried for help.

23. (24) O love Hashem, all ye His Chasidim; for Hashem preserveth the emunim (the faithful ones), but He pays back in full the oseh ga'avah (the one acting in pride, haughtily).

24. (25) Chazak! Be strong, let your levav take courage, all ye that hope in Hashem.
