Psalm 31:17-24
King James Version
17 Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.
18 Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
19 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!
20 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
21 Blessed be the Lord: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.
22 For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.
23 O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.
24 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord.

Psalm 31:17-24
New International Version
17 Let me not be put to shame,(A) Lord,
for I have cried out to you;
but let the wicked be put to shame
and be silent(B) in the realm of the dead.
18 Let their lying lips(C) be silenced,
for with pride and contempt
they speak arrogantly(D) against the righteous.
19 How abundant are the good things(E)
that you have stored up for those who fear you,
that you bestow in the sight of all,(F)
on those who take refuge(G) in you.
20 In the shelter(H) of your presence you hide(I) them
from all human intrigues;(J)
you keep them safe in your dwelling
from accusing tongues.
