2 In you, O Lord, have I put my hope; let me never be shamed; keep me safe in your righteousness.
3 Let your ear be turned to me; take me quickly out of danger; be my strong Rock, my place of strength where I may be safe.
4 For you are my Rock and my strong tower; go in front of me and be my guide, because of your name.
5 Take me out of the net which they have put ready for me secretly; for you are my strength.
6 Into your hands I give my spirit; you are my saviour, O Lord God for ever true.
7 I am full of hate for those who go after false gods; but my hope is in the Lord.
8 I will be glad and have delight in your mercy; because you have seen my trouble; you have had pity on my soul in its sorrows;
