Psalms

Psalm 31:5–7

5Into Your hands I commit my spirit;a

You have redeemed me, O LORD, God of truth.

6I hateb those who cling to worthless idols,

but in the LORD I trust.

7I will be glad and rejoice in Your loving devotion,

for You have seen my affliction;

You have known the anguish of my soul.
