¹ I put my trust in You, O Jehovah, let me not be put to shame forever.² In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue me; bow down Your ear to me and save me.³ Be a rock of strength for me, to which I may always go; You have given a command to save me; for You are my rock and my fortress.⁴ O my God, deliver me out of the hand of the wicked, and out of the hand of the unjust and the ruthless.⁵ For You are my hope, O Lord Jehovah, my trust from my youth.⁶ I have rested on You from the belly; You are He who took me out of my mother's womb; my praise shall be always of You.⁷ I am like a wonder to many, but You are my strong tower.⁸ My mouth is filled with Your praise, with your glory all the day long.⁹ Do not cast me off now at the time of my old age. Do not forsake me when my strength fails.¹⁰ For my enemies speak against me; and those who lurk for my soul plot together.¹¹ And they say, God has forsaken him; pursue him and take him, for there is no one to deliver.¹² O God, do not be far from me; my God come quickly to help me.¹³ Let them be ashamed; let those who are enemies of my soul be consumed; let them be covered with reproach, and let those seeking evil for me be dishonored;

¹⁴ and I will hope without ceasing, and I will add more on all Your praise.¹⁵ My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness and Your salvation all the day; for I do not know the numbers.¹⁶ I will come in the strength of the Lord Jehovah; I will speak of Your righteousness, of Yours alone.¹⁷ O God, You have taught me from my youth; and until now I have declared Your wonders.¹⁸ And even when I am old and grayheaded, O God, do not leave me until I declare Your arm to this generation, Your power to everyone who is to come.¹⁹ And, Your righteousness, O God, is to the heights, You who have done great things. O God, who is like You,²⁰ who has shown me great and evil distresses. You will turn me ; You will make me live; and You will bring me up from the depths of the earth.²¹ You will multiply my greatness and surround and comfort me.²² I will also thank You with a harp, O my God; I will sing Your truth; I will sing to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.²³ My lips shall shout for joy, for I will sing praise to You; also my soul which you have redeemed.²⁴ And my tongue shall muse on Your righteousness all the day; because those seeking my evil are disgraced; they are put to shame.
