Psalm

Chapter 71

New King James Version

1In You, O LORD, I put my trust; Let me never be put to shame. 2Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape; Incline Your ear to me, and save me. 3Be my strong refuge, To which I may resort continually; You have given the commandment to save me, For You [are] my rock and my fortress. 4Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man. 5For You are my hope, O Lord GOD; [You are] my trust from my youth. 6By You I have been upheld from birth; You are He who took me out of my mother's womb. My praise [shall be] continually of You. 7I have become as a wonder to many, But You [are] my strong refuge. 8Let my mouth be filled [with] Your praise [And with] Your glory all the day. 9Do not cast me off in the time of old age; Do not forsake me when my strength fails. 10For my enemies speak against me; And those who lie in wait for my life take counsel together, 11Saying, "God has forsaken him; Pursue and take him, for [there is] none to deliver [him."] 12O God, do not be far from me; O my God, make haste to help me! 13Let them be confounded [and] consumed Who are adversaries of my life; Let them be covered [with] reproach and dishonor Who seek my hurt. 14But I will hope continually, And will praise You yet more and more. 15My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness [And] Your salvation all the day, For I do not know [their] limits. 16I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only. 17O God, You have taught me from my youth; And to this [day] I declare Your wondrous works. 18Now also when [I am] old and grayheaded, O God, do not forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to [this] generation, Your power to everyone [who] is to come. 19Also Your righteousness, O God, [is] very high, You who have done great things; O God, who [is] like You? 20[You,] who have shown me great and severe troubles, Shall revive me again, And bring me up again from the depths of the earth. 21You shall increase my greatness, And comfort me on every side. 22Also with the lute I will praise you -- [And] Your faithfulness, O my God! To You I will sing with the harp, O Holy One of Israel. 23My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You, And my soul, which You have redeemed. 24My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long; For they are confounded, For they are brought to shame Who seek my hurt.
