"You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book? Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me.
In God, whose word I praise, in the LORD, whose word I praise,
In God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me?"
Psalms 31:14-16
"But I trust in you, O LORD; I say, 'You are my God.'
My times are in your hands; deliver me from my enemies and from those who pursue me.
Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love. "
Psalm 17:1-6
A prayer of David.
"Hear, O LORD, my righteous plea; listen to my cry. Give ear to my prayer— it does not rise from deceitful lips.
May my vindication come from you; may your eyes see what is right.
Though you probe my heart and examine me at night, though you test me, you will find nothing; I have resolved that my mouth will not sin.
As for the deeds of men—by the word of your lips I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.
My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not slipped.
I call on you, O God, for you will answer me; give ear to me and hear my prayer."
Psalms 17:15
"And I—in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness."
Is not the Lord - who holds my tears - worthy of my trust?
