Psalm 31:8

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

And thou hast not inclosed me within the en'my's hand; And by thee have my feet been made in a large room to stand.

See the chapter Copy

He to a place where liberty and room was hath me brought; Because he took delight in me, he my deliv'rance wrought.

Give ear unto me when I call, God of my righteousness: Have mercy, hear my pray'r; thou hast enlarg'd me in distress.

Thou hast put far from me my friends, thou mad'st them to abhor me; And I am so shut up, that I find no evasion for me.

Thou hast it seen; for their mischief and spite thou wilt repay: The poor commits himself to thee; thou art the orphan's stay.
