Psalms 31:17 in Context — Psalms 31
15 En tu mano están mis tiempos: líbrame de la mano de mis enemigos, y de mis perseguidores.
16 Haz resplandecer tu rostro sobre tu siervo: sálvame por tu misericordia.
17 No sea yo confundido, oh Jehová, ya que te he invocado; sean corridos los impíos, estén mudos en el profundo.
18 Enmudezcan los labios mentirosos, que hablan contra el justo cosas duras, con soberbia y menosprecio.
19 ¡Cuán grande es tu bien, que has guardado para los que te temen, que has obrado para los que esperan en ti, delante de los hijos de los hombres!
