Chapter 71

1


 

  In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age.  

 

 

--

2


 

  In Thy righteousness Thou dost deliver me, And dost cause me to escape, Incline unto me Thine ear, and save me.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Be to me for a rock -- a habitation, To go in continually, Thou hast given command to save me, For my rock and my bulwark [art] Thou.  

 

 

--

4


 

  O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.  

 

 

--

5


 

  For Thou [art] my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my youth.  

 

 

--

6


 

  By Thee I have been supported from the womb, From my mother's bowels Thou dost cut me out, In Thee [is] my praise continually.  

 

 

--

7


 

  As a wonder I have been to many, And Thou [art] my strong refuge.  

 

 

--

8


 

  Filled is my mouth [with] Thy praise, All the day [with] Thy beauty.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the consumption of my power forsake me not.  

 

 

--

10


 

  For mine enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,  

 

 

--

11


 

  Saying, 'God hath forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.'  

 

 

--

12


 

  O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make haste.  

 

 

--

13


 

  They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered [with] reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,  

 

 

--

14


 

  And I continually do wait with hope, And have added unto all Thy praise.  

 

 

--

15


 

  My mouth recounteth Thy righteousness, All the day Thy salvation, For I have not known the numbers.  

 

 

--

16


 

  I come in the might of the Lord Jehovah, I mention Thy righteousness -- Thine only.  

 

 

--

17


 

  God, Thou hast taught me from my youth, And hitherto I declare Thy wonders.  

 

 

--

18


 

  And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.  

 

 

--

19


 

  And Thy righteousness, O God, [is] unto the heights, Because Thou hast done great things, O God, who [is] like Thee?  

 

 

--

20


 

  Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou turnest back -- Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the earth, Thou turnest back -- Thou bringest me up.  

 

 

--

21


 

  Thou dost increase my greatness, And Thou surroundest -- Thou comfortest me,  

 

 

--

22


 

  I also thank Thee with a vessel of psaltery, Thy truth, O my God, I sing to Thee with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,  

 

 

--

23


 

  My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to Thee, And my soul that Thou hast redeemed,  

 

 

--

24


 

  My tongue also all the day uttereth Thy righteousness, Because ashamed -- because confounded, Have been those seeking my evil!  

 

 

--
