Psalms 71

New International Version NIV

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

2 In your righteousness, rescue me and deliver me; turn your ear 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 Deliver me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of those who are evil and cruel.

5 For you have been my hope, Sovereign LORD, my confidence since my youth.

6 From birth I have relied on you; you brought me forth from my mother’s womb. I will ever praise you.

7 I have become a sign to many; you are my strong refuge.

8 My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendor all day long.

9 Do not cast me away when I am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone.

10 For my enemies speak against me; those who wait to kill me conspire together.

11 They say, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for no one will rescue him.”

12 Do not be far from me, my God; come quickly, God, to help me.

13 May my accusers perish in shame; may those who want to harm me be covered with scorn and disgrace.

14 As for me, I will always have hope; I will praise you more and more.

15 My mouth will tell of your righteous deeds, of your saving acts all day long— though I know not how to relate them all.

16 I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, Sovereign LORD; I will proclaim your righteous deeds, yours alone.

17 Since my youth, God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.

18 Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come.

19 Your righteousness, God, reaches to the heavens, you who have done great things. Who is like you, God?

20 Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up.

21 You will increase my honor and comfort me once more.

22 I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God; I will sing praise to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.

23 My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you— I whom you have delivered.

24 My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long, for those who wanted to harm me have been put to shame and confusion.

Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible RHE

1 (70-1) <A psalm for David. Of the sons of Jonadab, and the former captives.> In thee, O Lord, I have hoped, let me never be put to confusion:

2 (70-2) Deliver me in thy justice, and rescue me. Incline thy ear unto me, and save me.

3 (70-3) Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a place of strength: that thou mayst make me safe. For thou art my firmament and my refuge.

4 (70-4) Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the sinner, and out of the hand of the transgressor of the law and of the unjust.

5 (70-5) For thou art my patience, O Lord: my hope, O Lord, from my youth.

6 (70-6) By thee have I been confirmed from the womb: from my mother’s womb thou art my protector. Of thee I shall continually sing:

7 (70-7) I am become unto many as a wonder, but thou art a strong helper.

8 (70-8) Let my mouth be filled with praise, that I may sing thy glory; thy greatness all the day long.

9 (70-9) Cast me not off in the time of old age: when my strength shall fail, do not thou forsake me.

10 (70-10) For my enemies have spoken against me; and they that watched my soul have consulted together,

11 (70-11) Saying: God hath forsaken him: pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him.

12 (70-12) O God, be not thou far from me: O my God, make haste to my help.

13 (70-13) Let them be confounded and come to nothing that detract my soul; let them be covered with confusion and blame that seek my hurt.

14 (70-14) But I will always hope; and will add to all thy praise.

15 (70-15) My mouth shall shew forth thy justice; thy salvation all the day long. Because I have not known learning,

16 (70-16) I will enter into the powers of the Lord: O Lord, I will be mindful of thy justice alone.

17 (70-17) Thou hast taught me, O God, from my youth: and till now I will declare thy wonderful works.

18 (70-18) And unto old age and grey hairs: O God, forsake me not, Until I shew forth thy arm to all the generation that is to come: Thy power,

19 (70-19) And thy justice, O God, even to the highest great things thou hast done: O God, who is like to thee?

20 (70-20) How great troubles hast thou shewn me, many and grievous: and turning thou hast brought me to life, and hast brought me back again from the depths of the earth:

21 (70-21) Thou hast multiplied thy magnificence; and turning to me thou hast comforted me.

22 (70-22) For I will also confess to thee thy truth with the instruments of psaltery: O God, I will sing to thee with the harp, thou holy one of Israel.

23 (70-23) My lips shall greatly rejoice, when I shall sing to thee; and my soul which thou hast redeemed.

24 (70-24) Yea and my tongue shall meditate on thy justice all the day; when they shall be confounded and put to shame that seek evils to me.
