- Kapitel 71 -

In you, Lord, I have found refuge

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

In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me.

Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress.

Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless.

For You are my hope, O Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.

I have leaned on You since birth; You pulled me from my mother’s womb. My praise is always for You.

I have become a portent to many, but You are my strong refuge.

My mouth is filled with Your praise and with Your splendor all day long.

Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails.

For my enemies speak against me, and those who lie in wait for my life conspire,

saying, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”

Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me.

May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace.

But I will always hope and will praise You more and more.

My mouth will declare Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot know their full measure.

I will enter in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness—Yours alone.

O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds.

Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.

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

Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up.

You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.

So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.

When I sing praise to You my lips will shout for joy, along with my soul, which You have redeemed.

My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded.

In you, Lord, I have found refuge

In you, LORD, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.

Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.

Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.

Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

For you are my hope, Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.

I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother’s womb. I will always praise you.

I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.

My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all day long.

Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.

For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,

saying, “God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him.”

God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.

Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.

But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.

My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don’t know its full measure.

I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.

God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.

Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, don’t forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.

God, your righteousness also reaches to the heavens. You have done great things. God, who is like you?

You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

Increase my honor and comfort me again.

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

My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!

My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
