Psalms 71 — Scripture text (King James Version)
In thee, O LORD3068, do I my trust2620: let me never408 5769 be to confusion954. Deliver5337 me in thy 6666, and cause me to escape6403: incline5186 thine ear241 unto me, and save3467 me. Be thou my strong6697 habitation4583, whereunto I may continually8548 resort935: thou hast given commandment6680 to save3467 me; for thou art my rock5553 and my fortress4686. Be: Heb. Be thou to me for a rock of habitation Deliver6403 me, O my God430, out of the hand3027 of the wicked7563, out of the hand3709 of the unrighteous5765 and cruel man2556. For thou art my hope8615, O Lord136 GOD3069: thou art my trust4009 from my youth5271. By thee have I been holden up5564 from the womb990: thou art he that took1491 me out of my mother's517 bowels4578: my praise8416 shall be continually8548 of thee. I am as a 4159 unto many7227; but thou art my strong5797 refuge4268. Let my mouth6310 be filled4390 with thy praise8416 and with thy honour8597 all the day3117. Cast me not off7993 in the time6256 of old age2209; forsake5800 me not when my strength3581 faileth3615. For mine enemies341 speak559 against me; and they that lay wait8104 for my soul5315 take counsel3289 together3162, lay: Heb. watch, or, observe Saying559, God430 hath forsaken5800 him: persecute7291 and take8610 him; for there is none to deliver5337 him. O God430, be not far7368 from me: O my God430, make haste2363 2439 for my help5833. Let them be confounded954 and consumed3615 that are adversaries7853 to my soul5315; let them be covered5844 with reproach2781 and dishonour3639 that seek1245 my hurt7451. But I will hope3176 continually8548, and will yet praise8416 thee more3254 and more3254. My mouth6310 shall shew forth5608 thy 6666 and thy 8668 all the day3117; for I know3045 not the numbers5615 thereof. I will go in935 the strength1369 of the Lord136 GOD3069: I will make mention2142 of thy 6666, even of thine only. O God430, thou hast taught3925 me from my youth5271: and hitherto have I declared5046 thy wondrous works6381. Now also when5704 I am old2209 and grayheaded7872, O God430, forsake5800 me not; until I have shewed5046 thy strength2220 unto this generation1755, and thy power1369 to every one that is to come935. when: Heb. unto old age and gray hairs thy strength: Heb. thine arm Thy 6666 also, O God430, is very high4791, who hast done6213 great things1419: O God430, who is like unto thee! Thou, which hast shewed7200 me great7227 and sore7451 troubles6869, shalt quicken2421 me again7725, and shalt bring me up5927 again7725 from the depths8415 of the earth776. Thou shalt increase7235 my greatness1420, and comfort5162 me every side5437. I will also praise3034 thee with the psaltery3627 5035, even thy truth571, O my God430: unto thee will I sing2167 with the 3658, O thou Holy One6918 of 3478. the psaltery: Heb. the instrument of psaltery My lips8193 shall greatly rejoice7442 when I sing2167 unto thee; and my soul5315, which thou hast redeemed6299. My tongue3956 also shall talk1897 of thy 6666 all the day3117 long: for they are confounded954, for they are brought unto shame2659, that seek1245 my hurt7451.
