Psalms 71

1 In you O Yahweh I have taken refuge may not I be ashamed for ever.

In thee, Jehovah, do I trust: let me never be ashamed.

2 In righteousness your you will rescue me and you will deliver me incline to me ear your and save me.

Deliver me in thy righteousness, and rescue me; incline thine ear unto me, and save me.

3 Become of me - a rock a dwelling place to go continually you have given command to save me for [are] rock my and stronghold my you.

Be to me a rock of habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.

4 O God my deliver me from [the] hand of [the] wicked from [the] hand of [the] wrongdoer and [the] ruthless.

My God, rescue me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

5 For you [are] hope my O Lord Yahweh confidence my since youth my.

For thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah, my confidence from my youth.

6 On you - I have supported myself from [the] womb from [the] inward parts of mother my you [were [the] one who] cut off me [is] in you praise my continually.

On thee have I been stayed from the womb; from the bowels of my mother thou didst draw me forth: my praise shall be continually of thee.

7 Like a portent I have become for many [people] and you [are] refuge of my strength.

I have been as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

8 It is filled mouth my praise your all the day splendor your.

My mouth shall be filled with thy praise, with thy glory, all the day.

9 May not you cast away me to a time of old age when fails strength my may not you forsake me.

Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

10 For they have spoken enemies my of me and [those who] watch of life my they have consulted together.

For mine enemies speak against me, and they that watch for my soul consult together,

11 Saying God he has forsaken him pursue and seize him for there not [is] a deliverer.

Saying, God hath forsaken him; pursue and seize him, for there is none to deliver.

12 O God may not you be far from me O God my to help my (make haste! *Q(K)*)

O God, be not far from me; my God, hasten to my help.

13 May they be ashamed may they come to an end [the] accusers of self my may they cover themselves reproach and ignominy [those who] seek harm my.

Let them be ashamed, let them be consumed, that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

14 And I continually I will wait and I will add to all praise your.

But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise thee yet more and more.

15 Mouth my - it will recount righteousness your all the day salvation your for not I know numbers.

My mouth shall declare thy righteousness, [and] thy salvation all the day: for I know not the numbers [thereof].

16 I will come with [the] mighty deeds of [the] Lord Yahweh I will bring to remembrance righteousness your to alone you.

I will go in the might of the Lord Jehovah; I will recall thy righteousness, thine alone.

17 O God you have taught me since youth my and until now I declare wonders your.

O God, thou hast taught me from my youth, and hitherto have I proclaimed thy marvellous works:

18 And also until old age - and grey hair O God may not you forsake me until I will declare strength your to a generation to every [one who] he will come might your.

Now also, when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not, until I have proclaimed thine arm unto [this] generation, thy might to every one that is to come.

19 And righteousness your O God [is] to [the] height who you have done great [things] O God who? [is] like you.

And thy righteousness, O God, reacheth on high, thou who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee?

20 Who (you have made see me *Q(K)*) troubles many and calamities you will return (you will preserve alive me *Q(K)*) and from [the] depths of the earth you will return you will bring up me.

Thou, who hast shewn us many and sore troubles, wilt revive us again, and wilt bring us up again from the depths of the earth;

21 May you increase - greatness my and may you turn may you comfort me.

Thou wilt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

22 Also I - I will praise you with an instrument of a lyre faithfulness your O God my I will make music to you with a harp O holy [one] of Israel.

I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, my God; unto thee will I sing psalms with the harp, thou holy One of Israel.

23 They will sing for joy lips my if I will make music to you and self my which you have redeemed.

My lips shall exult when I sing psalms unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.

24 Also tongue my all the day it will utter righteousness your for they are ashamed for they are abashed [those who] seek harm my.

My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day; for they shall be ashamed, for they shall be brought to confusion, that seek my hurt.
