1
|
In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. |
|
2
|
Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me. |
|
3
|
For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. |
|
4
|
Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength. |
|
5
|
Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. |
|
6
|
I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. |
|
7
|
I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; |
|
8
|
And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room. |
|
9
|
Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. |
|
10
|
For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. |
|
11
|
I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. |
|
12
|
I am 1forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
|
|
13
|
For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took 1counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
|
|
14
|
But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God. |
|
15
|
My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. |
|
16
|
Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake. |
|
17
|
Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. |
|
18
|
Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. |
|
19
|
Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! |
|
20
|
Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. |
|
21
|
Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. |
|
22
|
For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. |
|
23
|
O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD 1preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. |
