In you, O LORD, I have taken shelter! Never let me be humiliated! |
2
|
Vindicate me by rescuing me! Listen to me! Deliver me! |
3
|
Be my protector and refuge, a stronghold where I can be safe! For you are my high ridge and my stronghold. |
4
|
My God, rescue me from the power of the wicked, from the hand of the cruel oppressor! |
5
|
For you give me confidence, O Lord; O LORD, I have trusted in you since I was young. |
6
|
I have leaned on you since birth; you pulled me from my mother's womb. I praise you continually. |
7
|
Many are appalled when they see me, but you are my secure shelter. |
8
|
I praise you constantly and speak of your splendor all day long. |
9
|
Do not reject me in my old age! When my strength fails, do not abandon me! |
10
|
For my enemies talk about me; those waiting for a chance to kill me plot my demise. |
11
|
They say, "God has abandoned him. Run and seize him, for there is no one who will rescue him!" |
12
|
O God, do not remain far away from me! My God, hurry and help me! |
13
|
May my accusers be humiliated and defeated! May those who want to harm me be covered with scorn and disgrace! |
14
|
As for me, I will wait continually, and will continue to praise you. |
15
|
I will tell about your justice, and all day long proclaim your salvation, though I cannot fathom its full extent. |
16
|
I will come and tell about the mighty acts of the sovereign LORD. I will proclaim your justice— yours alone. |
17
|
O God, you have taught me since I was young, and I am still declaring your amazing deeds. |
18
|
Even when I am old and gray, O God, do not abandon me, until I tell the next generation about your strength, and those coming after me about your power. |
19
|
Your justice, O God, extends to the skies above; you have done great things. O God, who can compare to you? |
20
|
Though you have allowed me to experience much trouble and distress, revive me once again! Bring me up once again from the depths of the earth! |
21
|
Raise me to a position of great honor! Turn and comfort me! |
22
|
I will express my thanks to you with a stringed instrument, praising your faithfulness, O my God! I will sing praises to you accompanied by a harp, O Holy One of Israel! |
23
|
My lips will shout for joy! Yes, I will sing your praises! I will praise you when you rescue me! |
24
|
All day long my tongue will also tell about your justice, for those who want to harm me will be embarrassed and ashamed. |
