Psalms 31:5
3 For You are my rock and my fortress; lead me and guide me for the sake of Your name.
4 You free me from the net laid out for me, for You are my refuge.
Into Your hands I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O LORD, God of truth.
6 I hate those who cling to worthless idols, but in the LORD I trust.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in Your loving devotion, for You have seen my affliction; You have known the anguish of my soul.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
