Psalms - Chapter 71 | New King James Version

  • 1. In You, O Lord, I put my trust; Let me never be put to shame.
  • 2. Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape; Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
  • 3. 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.
  • 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 You are my hope, O Lord God; You are my trust from my youth.
  • 6. 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.
  • 7. I have become as a wonder to many, But You are my strong refuge.
  • 8. Let my mouth be filled with Your praise And with Your glory all the day.
  • 9. Do not cast me off in the time of old age; Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
  • 10. For my enemies speak against me; And those who lie in wait for my life take counsel together,
  • 11. Saying, "God has forsaken him; Pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him."
  • 12. O God, do not be far from me; O my God, make haste to help me!
  • 13. Let them be confounded and consumed Who are adversaries of my life; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor Who seek my hurt.
  • 14. But I will hope continually, And will praise You yet more and more.
  • 15. My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And Your salvation all the day, For I do not know their limits.
  • 16. I will go in the strength of the Lord God; I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.
  • 17. O God, You have taught me from my youth; And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.
  • 18. 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.
  • 19. Also Your righteousness, O God, is very high, You who have done great things; O God, who is like You?
  • 20. You, who have shown me great and severe troubles, Shall revive me again, And bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
  • 21. You shall increase my greatness, And comfort me on every side.
  • 22. 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.
  • 23. My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You, And my soul, which You have redeemed.
  • 24. 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.
