American Standard Version
Psalms 71:5-18
5For thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah:Thou artmy trust from my youth.6By thee have I been holden up from the womb;Thou art he that took me out of my mother’s bowels:My praise shall be continually of thee.7I am as a wonder unto many;But thou art my strong refuge.8My mouth shall be filled with thy praise,And with thy honor all the day.9Cast me not off in the time of old age;Forsake me not when my strength faileth.10For mine enemies speak concerning me;And they that watch for my soul take counsel together,11Saying, God hath forsaken him:Pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver.12O God, be not far from me;O my God, make haste to help me.13Let them be put to shameandconsumed that are adversaries to my soul;Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor that seek my hurt.14But I will hope continually,And will praise thee yet more and more.15My mouth shall tell of thy righteousness,Andof thy salvation all the day;For I know not the numbers thereof.16I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Jehovah:I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.17O God, thou hast taught me from my youth;And hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.18Yea, even when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not,Until I have declared thy strength unto the next generation,Thy might to every one that is to come.
