Psa 31:21 | NET2full | STEP | The Lord deserves praise for he demonstrated his amazing faithfulness to me when I was besieged by enemies.

‏ Psalms 31:21

21 The Lord deserves praise ^{▼▼tn Heb “blessed [be] the Lord.”}
for he demonstrated his amazing faithfulness to me when I was besieged by enemies. ^{▼▼tn Heb “for he caused his faithfulness to be amazing to me in a besieged city.” The psalmist probably speaks figuratively here. He compares his crisis to being trapped in a besieged city, but the Lord answered his prayer for help. Verses 19-24 were apparently written after the Lord answered the prayer of vv. 1-18.}
