Psalms Chapter 71 (NASB)

Compare with Version:

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

² In Your righteousness rescue me and save me; Extend Your ear to me and help me.

³ Be to me a rock of dwelling to which I may continually come; You have given the commandment to save me, For You are my rock and my fortress.

⁴ Save me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, From the [634]grasp of the wrongdoer and the ruthless,

⁵ For You are my hope; Lord [635]GOD, You are my confidence from my youth.

⁶ I have leaned on you since my birth; You are He who took me from my mother’s womb; My praise is continually [636]of You.

⁷ I have become a marvel to many, For You are my strong refuge.

⁸ My mouth is filled with Your praise And with Your glory all day long.

⁹ Do not cast me away at the time of my old age; Do not abandon me when my strength fails.

¹⁰ For my enemies have spoken [637]against me; And those who watch for my [638]life have consulted together,

¹¹ Saying, “God has abandoned him; Pursue and seize him, for there is no one to save him.”

¹² God, do not be far from me; My God, hurry to my aid!

¹³ May those who are enemies of my soul be put to shame and consumed; May they be covered with disgrace and dishonor, who seek [639]to injure me.

¹⁴ But as for me, I will wait continually, And will [640]praise You yet more and more.

¹⁵ My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And of Your salvation all day long; For I do not know the art of writing.

¹⁶ I will come with the mighty deeds of the Lord [641]GOD; I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.

¹⁷ God, You have taught me from my youth, And I still declare Your wondrous deeds.

¹⁸ And even when I am old and gray, God, do not abandon me, Until I declare Your [642]strength to this generation, Your power to all who are to come.

¹⁹ [643]For Your righteousness, God, reaches to the [644]heavens, You who have done great things; God, who is like You?

²⁰ You who have shown [645]me many troubles and distresses Will revive [646]me again, And will bring [647]me up again from the depths of the earth.

²¹ May You increase my greatness And turn to comfort me.

²² I will also praise You with [648]a harp, And Your [649]truth, my God; I will sing praises to You with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.

²³ My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to You; And my soul, which You have redeemed.

²⁴ My tongue also will tell of Your righteousness all day long; For they are put to shame, for they are humiliated who seek [650]my harm.
