Psalms:71
Seeker Overlay ON
*
In You ,
O LORD ,
I put my trust ;
Let me never be put to shame .
*
Deliver me in Your righteousness ,
and cause me to escape ;
Incline Your ear to me ,
and save me .
*
Be 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 .
*
Deliver me ,
O my God ,
out of the hand of the wicked ,
Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man .
*
For You are my hope ,
O Lord GOD ;
You are my trust from my youth .
*
By 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 .
*
I have become as a wonder to many ,
But You are my strong refuge .
*
Let my mouth be filled with Your praise And with Your glory all the day .
*
Do not cast me off in the time of old age ;
Do not forsake me when my strength fails .
*
For my enemies speak against me ;
And those who lie in wait for my life take counsel together ,
*
Saying , "
God has forsaken him ;
Pursue and take him ,
for there is none to deliver him ."
*
O God ,
do not be far from me ;
O my God ,
make haste to help me !
*
Let them be confounded and consumed Who are adversaries of my life ;
Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor Who seek my hurt .
*
But I will hope continually ,
And will praise You yet more and more .
*
My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And Your salvation all the day ,
For I do not know their limits .
*
I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD ;
I will make mention of Your righteousness ,
of Yours only .
*
O God ,
You have taught me from my youth ;
And to this day I declare Your wondrous works .
*
Now 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 .
*
Also Your righteousness ,
O God ,
is very high ,
You who have done great things ;
O God ,
who is like You ?
*
You ,
who have shown me great and severe troubles ,
Shall revive me again ,
And bring me up again from the depths of the earth .
*
You shall increase my greatness ,
And comfort me on every side .
*
Also 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 .
*
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You ,
And my soul ,
which You have redeemed .
*
My 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 .
