^1 (a)In You, O Lord, I have taken refuge;
Let me never be ashamed.
^2 (b)In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
^(c)Incline Your ear to me and save me.
^3 (d)Be to me a rock of ^(e)habitation to which I may continually come;
You have given ^(f)commandment to save me,
For You are ^(g)my ^[a]rock and my fortress.
^4 (h)Rescue me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked,
Out of the ^[b]grasp of the wrongdoer and ruthless man,
⁵ For You are my ⁽ⁱ⁾hope;
O Lord ^[c]God, You are my ^(j)confidence from my youth.
^6 [d]By You I have been ^(k)sustained from my birth;
You are He who ^(l)took me from my mother's womb;
My ^(m)praise is continually ^[e]of You.

⁷ I have become a ⁽ⁿ⁾marvel to many,
For You are ^(o)my strong refuge.
⁸ My ^(p)mouth is filled with Your praise
And with ^(q)Your glory all day long.
⁹ Do not cast me off in the ^(r)time of old age;
Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
¹⁰ For my enemies have spoken ^[f]against me;
And those who ^(s)watch for my ^[g]life ^(t)have consulted together,
¹¹ Saying, "^(u)God has forsaken him;
Pursue and seize him, for there is ^(v)no one to deliver."

¹² O God, ^(w)do not be far from me;
O my God, ^(x)hasten to my help!
¹³ Let those who are adversaries of my soul be ^(y)ashamed and consumed;
Let them be ^(z)covered with reproach and dishonor, who ^(aa)seek ^[h]to injure me.
¹⁴ But as for me, I will ^(ab)hope continually,
And will ^[i](ac)praise You yet more and more.
¹⁵ My ^(ad)mouth shall tell of Your righteousness
And of ^(ae)Your salvation all day long;
For I ^(af)do not know the ^[j]sum of them.
¹⁶ I will come ^(ag)with the mighty deeds of the Lord ^[k]God;
I will ^(ah)make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.

¹⁷ O God, You ^(ai)have taught me from my youth,
And I still ^(aj)declare Your wondrous deeds.
¹⁸ And even when I am ^(ak)old and gray, O God, do not forsake me,
Until I ^(al)declare Your ^[l]strength to this generation,
Your power to all who are to come.
^19 [m]For Your ^(am)righteousness, O God, reaches to the ^[n]heavens,
You who have ^(an)done great things;
O God, ^(ao)who is like You?
²⁰ You who have ^(ap)shown ^[o]me many troubles and distresses
Will ^(aq)revive ^[p]me again,
And will bring ^[q]me up again ^(ar)from the depths of the earth.
²¹ May You increase my ^(as)greatness
And turn to ^(at)comfort me.

²² I will also praise You with ^[r](au)a harp,
Even Your ^[s]truth, O my God;
To You I will sing praises with the ^(av)lyre,
O ^(aw)Holy One of Israel.
²³ My lips will ^(ax)shout for joy when I sing praises to You;
And my ^(ay)soul, which You have redeemed.
²⁴ My ^(az)tongue also will utter Your righteousness all day long;
For they are ^(ba)ashamed, for they are humiliated who seek ^[t]my hurt.
