Psalms 71:5-18
5For You are my 1hopeH8615; LordH136 2GodH3068, You are my 3confidenceH4009 from my youthH5271.6I have 4leanedH5564 on You sinceH4480 my birthH990; You are He who 5tookH1491 me from my mother’sH517 wombH990; My 6praiseH8416 is continuallyH8548 7of You.
7I have becomeH1961 a 8marvelH4159 to manyH7227, For You are 9my strongH5797 refugeH4268.8My 10mouthH6310 is filledH4390 with Your praiseH8416 And with 11Your gloryH8597 allH3605 dayH3117 long.9Do not castH7993 me awayH7993 at the 12timeH6256 of my oldH2209 ageH2209; Do not abandonH5800 me when my strengthH3581 failsH3615.10For my enemiesH340 have spokenH559 13against me; And those who 14watchH8104 for my 15lifeH5315 16have consultedH3289 togetherH3164,11SayingH559, “17GodH430 has abandonedH5800 him; PursueH7291 and seizeH8610 him, for thereH369 isH369 18noH369 oneH369 to saveH5337 him.”
12GodH430, 19do not beH7368 farH7368 from me; My GodH430, 20hurryH2363 to my aidH5833!13May those who are enemiesH7853 of my soulH5315 be 21putH954 toH954 shameH954 and consumedH3615; May they be 22coveredH5844 with disgraceH2781 and dishonorH3639, who 23seekH1245 24to injureH7463 me.14But as for me, I will 25waitH3176 continuallyH8548, And will 2627praiseH8416 You yetH3254 moreH3254 and moreH3254.15My 28mouthH6310 shall tellH5608 of Your righteousnessH6666 And of 29Your salvationH8668 allH3605 dayH3117 long; For I 30do not knowH3045 the artH5615 ofH5615 writingH5615.16I will comeH935 31with the mightyH1369 deedsH1369 of the LordH136 32GodH3068; I will 33makeH2142 mentionH2142 of Your righteousnessH6666, Yours aloneH905.
17GodH430, You 34have taughtH3925 me from my youthH5271, And I stillH5704H2008 35declareH5046 Your wondrousH6381 deedsH6381.18And evenH1571 whenH5704 I am 36oldH2209 and grayH7872, GodH430, do not abandonH5800 me, UntilH5704 I 37declareH5046 Your 38strengthH2220 to this generationH1755, Your powerH1369 to allH3605 who are to comeH935.
