1
|
In you, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame. |
|---|
|
2
|
Rescue me and deliver me in your righteousness; turn your ear to me and save me. |
|---|
|
3
|
Be my rock of refuge, to which I can always go; give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress. |
|---|
|
4
|
Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of evil and cruel men. |
|---|
|
5
|
For you have been my hope, O Sovereign LORD, my confidence since my youth. |
|---|
|
6
|
From my birth I have relied on you; you brought me forth from my mother's womb. I will ever praise you. |
|---|
|
7
|
I have become like a portent to many, but you are my strong refuge. |
|---|
|
8
|
My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendour all day long. |
|---|
|
9
|
Do not cast me away when I am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone. |
|---|
|
10
|
For my enemies speak against me; those who wait to kill me conspire together. |
|---|
|
11
|
They say, "God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for no-one will rescue him." |
|---|
|
12
|
Be not far from me, O God; come quickly, O my God, to help me. |
|---|
|
13
|
May my accusers perish in shame; may those who want to harm me be covered with scorn and disgrace. |
|---|
|
14
|
But as for me, I shall always have hope; I will praise you more and more. |
|---|
|
15
|
My mouth will tell of your righteousness, of your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure. |
|---|
|
16
|
I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, O Sovereign LORD; I will proclaim your righteousness, yours alone. |
|---|
|
17
|
Since my youth, O God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvellous deeds. |
|---|
|
18
|
Even when I am old and grey, do not forsake me, O God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your might to all who are to come. |
|---|
|
19
|
Your righteousness reaches to the skies, O God, you who have done great things. Who, O God, is like you? |
|---|
|
20
|
Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. |
|---|
|
21
|
You will increase my honour and comfort me once again. |
|---|
|
22
|
I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel. |
|---|
|
23
|
My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you--I, whom you have redeemed. |
|---|
|
24
|
My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long, for those who wanted to harm me have been put to shame and confusion. |
