Chapter 71
Psal GodsWord 71:1  I have taken refuge in you, O LORD. Never let me be put to shame.
Psal GodsWord 71:2  Rescue me and free me because of your righteousness. Turn your ear toward me, and save me.
Psal GodsWord 71:3  Be a rock on which I may live, a place where I may always go. You gave the order to save me! Indeed, you are my rock and my fortress.
Psal GodsWord 71:4  My God, free me from the hands of a wicked person, from the grasp of one who is cruel and unjust.
Psal GodsWord 71:5  You are my hope, O Almighty LORD. You have been my confidence ever since I was young.
Psal GodsWord 71:6  I depended on you before I was born. You took me from my mother's womb. My songs of praise constantly speak about you.
Psal GodsWord 71:7  I have become an example to many people, but you are my strong refuge.
Psal GodsWord 71:8  My mouth is filled with your praise, with your glory all day long.
Psal GodsWord 71:9  Do not reject me when I am old or abandon me when I lose my strength.
Psal GodsWord 71:10  My enemies talk about me. They watch me as they plot to take my life.
Psal GodsWord 71:11  They say, "God has abandoned him. Pursue him and grab him because there is no one to rescue him."
Psal GodsWord 71:12  O God, do not be so distant from me. O my God, come quickly to help me.
Psal GodsWord 71:13  Let those who accuse me come to a shameful end. Let those who want my downfall be covered with disgrace and humiliation.
Psal GodsWord 71:14  But I will always have hope. I will praise you more and more.
Psal GodsWord 71:15  My mouth will tell about your righteousness, about your salvation all day long. Even then, it is more than I can understand.
Psal GodsWord 71:16  I will come with the mighty deeds of the Almighty LORD. I will praise your righteousness, yours alone.
Psal GodsWord 71:17  O God, you have taught me ever since I was young, and I still talk about the miracles you have done.
Psal GodsWord 71:18  Even when I am old and gray, do not abandon me, O God. Let me live to tell the people of this age what your strength has accomplished, to tell about your power to all who will come.
Psal GodsWord 71:19  Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God. You have done great things. O God, who is like you?
Psal GodsWord 71:20  You have made me endure many terrible troubles. You restore me to life again. You bring me back from the depths of the earth.
Psal GodsWord 71:22  Because of your faithfulness, O my God, even I will give thanks to you as I play on a lyre. I will make music with a harp to praise you, O Holy One of Israel.
Psal GodsWord 71:23  My lips will sing with joy when I make music to praise you. My soul, which you have rescued, also will sing joyfully.
Psal GodsWord 71:24  My tongue will tell about your righteousness all day long, because those who wanted my downfall have been disgraced and put to shame.
