- Chapter 71 -

In you, Lord, I have found refuge

1
In you, Yahweh, I take refuge; let me never be put to shame.
2
Rescue me and make me safe in your righteousness; turn your ear to me and save me.
3
Be to me a rock for refuge where I may always go; you have given a command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
4
Rescue me, my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel.
5
For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh. I have trusted in you ever since I was a child.
6
By you I have been supported from the womb; you are he who took me out of my mother’s belly; my praise will be always about you.
7
I am an example to many people; you are my strong refuge.
8
My mouth will be filled with your praise, all the day with your honor.
9
Do not throw me away in my time of old age; do not abandon me when my strength fails.
10
For my enemies are talking about me; those who watch for my life are plotting together.
11
They say, “God has forsaken him; pursue and take him, for there is no one to save him.”
12
God, do not be far from me; my God, hurry to help me.
13
Let them be put to shame and destroyed, those who are hostile to my life; let them be covered with rebuke and dishonor, those who seek my hurt.
14
But I will always hope in you and will praise you more and more.
15
My mouth will tell about your righteousness and your salvation all the day, although I cannot understand it.
16
I will come with the mighty acts of Lord Yahweh; I will make mention of your righteousness, yours alone.
17
God, you have taught me from my youth; even now I declare your wonderful deeds.
18
Indeed, even when I am old and grayheaded, God, do not forsake me, as I have been declaring your strength to the next generation, your power to everyone who is to come.
19
Your righteousness also, God, is very high; you who have done great things, God, who is like you?
20
You who have shown us many severe troubles will revive us again and will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.
21
May you increase my honor; turn again and comfort me.
22
I will also give thanks to you with the harp for your trustworthiness, my God; to you I will sing praises with the harp, Holy One of Israel.
23
My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to you-even my soul, which you have redeemed.
24
My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long; for they have been put to shame and are confused, those who sought my hurt.

In you, Lord, I have found refuge

1
In you, LORD, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
2
Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
3
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.
4
Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
5
For you are my hope, Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.
6
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.
7
I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
8
My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all day long.
9
Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.
10
For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
11
saying, “God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him.”
12
God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.
13
Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
14
But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
15
My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don’t know its full measure.
16
I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.
17
God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
18
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.
19
God, your righteousness also reaches to the heavens. You have done great things. God, who is like you?
20
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.
21
Increase my honor and comfort me again.
22
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.
23
My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!
24
My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
