Psalm 71

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 In you, ADONAI, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame.

2 In your righteousness, rescue me; and help me to escape. Turn your ear toward me, and deliver me.

3 Be for me a sheltering rock, where I can always come. You have determined to save me, because you are my bedrock and stronghold.

4 My God, help me escape from the power of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless.

5 For you are my hope, Adonai ELOHIM, in whom I have trusted since I was young.

6 From birth I have relied on you; it was you who took me from my mother's womb.

7 To many, I am an amazing example; but you are strong protection for me.

8 My mouth is full of praise for you, filled with your glory all day long.

9 Don't reject me when I grow old; when my strength fails, don't abandon me.

10 For my enemies are talking about me, those seeking my life are plotting together.

11 They say, "God has abandoned him; go after him, and seize him, because no one will save him."

12 God, don't distance yourself from me! My God, hurry to help me!

13 May those who are opposed to me be put to shame and ruin; may those who seek to harm me be covered with scorn and disgrace.

14 But I, I will always hope and keep adding to your praise.

15 All day long my mouth will tell of your righteous deeds and acts of salvation, though their number is past my knowing.

16 I will come in the power of Adonai ELOHIM and recall your righteousness, yours alone.

17 God, you have taught me since I was young, and I still proclaim your wonderful works.

18 So now that I'm old, and my hair is gray, don't abandon me, God, till I have proclaimed your strength to the next generation, your power to all who will come,

19 your righteousness too, God, which reaches to the heights. God, you have done great things; who is there like you?

20 You have made me see much trouble and hardship, but you will revive me again and bring me up from the depths of the earth.

21 You will increase my honor; turn and comfort me.

22 As for me, I will praise you with a lyre for your faithfulness, my God. I will sing praises to you with a lute, Holy One of Isra'el.

23 My lips will shout for joy; I will sing your praise, because you have redeemed me.

24 All day long my tongue will speak of your righteousness. For those who are seeking to harm me will be put to shame and disgraced.

King James Version KJV

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 grayheaded, 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 quicken 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.
