1
|
In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion. |
|
2
|
Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me. |
|
3
|
Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress. |
|
4
|
Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man. |
|
5
|
For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth. |
|
6
|
By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother's bowels: my praise shall be continually of thee. |
|
7
|
I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge. |
|
8
|
Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day. |
|
9
|
Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth. |
|
10
|
For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together, |
|
11
|
Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him. |
|
12
|
O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help. |
|
13
|
Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt. |
|
14
|
But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more. |
|
15
|
My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof. |
|
16
|
I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only. |
|
17
|
O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works. |
|
18
|
Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come. |
|
19
|
Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee! |
|
20
|
Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt aquicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth. |
|
21
|
Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side. |
|
22
|
I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel. |
|
23
|
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed. |
|
24
|
My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt. |
