Chapter 71

1


 

  In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never let me be put to shame.  

 

 

-

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 Yahweh; 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 the day.  

 

 

-

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 put to shame 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 Yahweh. 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-headed, God, don't forsake me, Until I have declared your strength to the next generation, Your might to everyone who is to come.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; You who have done great things. God, who is like you?  

 

 

-

20


 

  You, who have showed 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 put to shame, and they are confounded, who want to harm me. Psalm 72 By Solomon.
