| 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. |
