Psa.|71:1|-||a|In You, O Jehovah, do I |b|take refuge;Never let me be put to shame.
Psa.|71:2|-|In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;Incline Your ear to me and save me.
Psa.|71:3|-|Be to me a |a|rock of habitation for me to come to continually.You have given command to save me,
For You are my rock and my |b|fortress.
Psa.|71:4|-|My God, rescue me from the hand of the wicked,From the hand of the unjust and cruel;
Psa.|71:5|-|For You are my hope, O Lord Jehovah,My trust from my youth.
Psa.|71:6|-|On You I have been sustained since |a|birth;It was You who took me from my mother’s |b|womb;
My praise is continually of You.
Psa.|71:7|-|I am like a wonder to many,But You are my strong |a|refuge.
Psa.|71:8|-|My mouth is filled with Your praise,With Your |1|glory, all day long.
Psa.|71:9|-|Do not cast me off in the time of |a|old age;When my strength fails, do not forsake me.
Psa.|71:10|-|For my enemies speak concerning me,And those who watch for my soul take |a|counsel together,
Psa.|71:11|-|Saying, God has forsaken him;Pursue and lay hold of him, for there is no one to deliver him.
Psa.|71:12|-|O God, do not be far away from me;My God, hasten to help me.
Psa.|71:13|-|May those who are the adversaries to my soulBe put to shame and consumed;
May those who seek my misfortuneWrap themselves in reproach and humiliation.
Psa.|71:14|-|But I will hope continuallyAnd will add yet more to all Your praise.
Psa.|71:15|-|My mouth will recount Your righteousness,Your salvation, all day long;
For I do not know its full numbers.
Psa.|71:16|-|I will come with the proof of the mighty acts of the Lord Jehovah;I will remind men of Your righteousness, Yours alone.
Psa.|71:17|-|O God, You have taught me from my youth;And until now I have declared Your wondrous deeds.
Psa.|71:18|-|So even into my |a|old age and grayheadedness,O God, do not forsake me,
Until I have declared Your strengthUnto the next generation,
Your might unto everyone who is to come.
Psa.|71:19|-|And Your righteousness, O God, is so high,You who have done |a|great things.
O God, |b|who is like You?
Psa.|71:20|-|You who have shown |1|meMany great troubles
Will |a|revive |1|me againAnd bring |1|me up again
From the depths of the earth.
Psa.|71:21|-|You will increase my greatnessAnd will turn and comfort me.
Psa.|71:22|-|I will also praise You with the harp,I will praise Your |1|faithfulness, my God;
I will sing psalms to You with the lyre,O Holy One of Israel.
Psa.|71:23|-|My lips will give a ringing shoutWhen I sing psalms to You,
And my soul, which You have redeemed.
Psa.|71:24|-|My tongue also will declareYour righteousness all day long;
For they are put to shame, for they are confounded,They who seek my misfortune.
