31 Lord, I come to you for protection.
    Don’t let me be disappointed.
    You always do what is right, so save me.

    Come quickly and save me.
Be my Rock, my place of safety.
    Be my fortress and protect me!
Yes, you are my Rock and my protection.
    For the good of your name, lead me and guide me.
