Psalms
Chapter
71
1
In you, O Jehovah/God,
do
I put my trust.
Let
me never be put to confusion.
2
Deliver me in Your righteousness,
and
cause me to escape.
Incline
your ear unto me, and save me.
3
Be You my strong habitation,
whereunto
I may continually resort.
You
have given commandment to save me . . .
for
You are my rock and my fortress.
4``
Deliver me, O my Elohiym/Godhead,
out
of the hand of the wicked,
out
of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
5``
For you are my hope,
O
the Lord/'Adonay Jehovah/God.
You
are my trust from my youth.
6
By you have I been helped from the womb.
You
are He Who took me out of my mother's bowels.
My
praise shall be continually of You.
7
I am as a wonder unto many;
but
You are my strong refuge.
8
Let my mouth be filled with your praise
and
with your honor all the day.
9
Cast me not off in the time of old age;
forsake
me not when my strength fails.
10
For my enemies speak against me;
and
those who lay wait for my soul take counsel together, 11
saying,
'Elohiym/Godhead has forsaken him.
Persecute
and take him . . .
for
there is none to deliver him.
12
O 'Elohiym/Godhead, be not far from me.
O
my 'Elohiym/Godhead, make haste for my help.
13
Let them be confounded and consumed
who
are adversaries to my soul;
let
them be covered with reproach
and
dishonor who seek my hurt.
14
But I will hope continually,
and
will yet praise you more and more.
15
My mouth shall show forth Your righteousness
and
Your deliverance/salvation all the day;
for
I know not the numbers thereof.
16``
I will go in the strength of the Lord/'Adonay Jehovah/God.
I
will make mention of Your righteousness,
even
of Yours only.
17
O 'Elohiym/Godhead,
You
have taught me from my youth
and
hitherto have I declared Your wondrous works.
18
Now also when I am old and grey-headed,
O
'Elohiym/Godhead, forsake me not;
until
I have showed Your strength unto this generation,
and
Your power to every one that is to come.
19
Your righteousness also, O 'Elohiym/Godhead,
is
very high,
Who
have done great things . . .
O
'Elohiym/Godhead, who is like unto You!
20
You, Who have showed me great and sore troubles,
shall
refresh/quicken me again,
and
shall bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
21
You shall increase my greatness,
and
comfort me on every side.
22
I will also praise You with the psaltery,
even
your Truth/Doctrine, O my 'Elohiym/Godhead.
Unto
You will I sing with the harp,
O
You Holy One of Israel.
23
My lips shall greatly rejoice
when
I sing unto You;
and
my soul,
which
You have redeemed.
24
My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness
all
the day long . . .
for
they are confounded,
for
they are brought unto shame,
who
seek my hurt.
