Psalm 31:20

A Plea For Protection

¹⁹ Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for those that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for those that wait in thee before the sons of men! ²⁰ You hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the conspiracies of man;
You keep them secretly in a shelter from the strife of tongues.
²¹ Blessed be the LORD, for he has shown me his marvellous mercy in a strong city.
