Book 19 Psalms Chapter 071
  | |
| 071:001 | In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.   |
| 071:002 | Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.   |
| 071:003 | 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.   |
| 071:004 | Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.   |
| 071:005 | For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.   |
| 071:006 | 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.   |
| 071:007 | I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.   |
| 071:008 | Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.   |
| 071:009 | Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.   |
| 071:010 | For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,   |
| 071:011 | Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.   |
| 071:012 | O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.   |
| 071:013 | Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.   |
| 071:014 | But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.   |
| 071:015 | My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.   |
| 071:016 | I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.   |
| 071:017 | O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.   |
| 071:018 | Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.   |
| 071:019 | Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!   |
| 071:020 | 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.   |
| 071:021 | Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.   |
| 071:022 | 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.   |
| 071:023 | My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.   |
| 071:024 | 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. |
