Psalm 71 (New International Version)
71:1-3pp -- Ps 31:1-4
1 In you, O Lord, I have taken refuge;1 let me never be put to shame.2 2 Rescue me and deliver me in your righteousness; turn your ear3 to me and save me. 3 Be my rock of refuge, to which I can always go; give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.4 4 Deliver5 me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,6 from the grasp of evil and cruel men.7 5 For you have been my hope,8 O Sovereign Lord, my confidence9 since my youth. 6 From birth10 I have relied on you; you brought me forth from my mother's womb.11 I will ever praise12 you. 7 I have become like a portent13 to many, but you are my strong refuge.14 8 My mouth15 is filled with your praise, declaring your splendor16 all day long. 9 Do not cast17 me away when I am old;18 do not forsake19 me when my strength is gone. 10 For my enemies20 speak against me; those who wait to kill21 me conspire22 together. 11 They say, "God has forsaken23 him; pursue him and seize him, for no one will rescue24 him." 12 Be not far25 from me, O God; come quickly, O my God, to help26 me. 13 May my accusers27 perish in shame;28 may those who want to harm me be covered with scorn and disgrace.29 14 But as for me, I will always have hope;30 I will praise you more and more. 15 My mouth will tell31 of your righteousness,32 of your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure. 16 I will come and proclaim your mighty acts,33 O Sovereign Lord; I will proclaim your righteousness, yours alone. 17 Since my youth, O God, you have taught34 me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.35 18 Even when I am old and gray,36 do not forsake me, O God, till I declare your power37 to the next generation, your might to all who are to come.38 19 Your righteousness reaches to the skies,39 O God, you who have done great things.40 Who, O God, is like you?41 20 Though you have made me see troubles,42 many and bitter, you will restore43 my life again; from the depths of the earth44 you will again bring me up. 21 You will increase my honor45 and comfort46 me once again. 22 I will praise you with the harp47 for your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to you with the lyre,48 O Holy One of Israel.49 23 My lips will shout for joy50 when I sing praise to you-- I, whom you have redeemed.51 24 My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long,52 for those who wanted to harm me53 have been put to shame and confusion.54Scripture quoted by permission.
