[1] In You, O Lord, I put my trust; Let me never be put to shame.

[2] Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape; Incline Your ear to me, and save me.

[3] Be my strong refuge, To which I may resort continually; You have given the commandment to save me, For You are my rock and my fortress.

[4] Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

[5] For You are my hope, O Lord GOD; You are my trust from my youth.

[6] By You I have been upheld from birth; You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb. My praise shall be continually of You.

[7] I have become as a wonder to many, But You are my strong refuge.

[8] Let my mouth be filled with Your praise And with Your glory all the day.

[9] Do not cast me off in the time of old age; Do not forsake me when my strength fails.

[10] For my enemies speak against me; And those who lie in wait for my life take counsel together,

[11] Saying, “God has forsaken him; Pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him.”

[12] O God, do not be far from me; O my God, make haste to help me!

[13] Let them be confounded and consumed Who are adversaries of my life; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor Who seek my hurt.

[14] But I will hope continually, And will praise You yet more and more.

[15] My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And Your salvation all the day, For I do not know their limits.

[16] I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.

[17] O God, You have taught me from my youth; And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.

[18] Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, do not forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to this generation, Your power to everyone who is to come.

[19] Also Your righteousness, O God, is very high, You who have done great things; O God, who is like You?

[20] You, who have shown me great and severe troubles, Shall revive me again, And bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

[21] You shall increase my greatness, And comfort me on every side.

[22] Also with the lute I will praise You— And Your faithfulness, O my God! To You I will sing with the harp, O Holy One of Israel.

[23] My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You, And my soul, which You have redeemed.

[24] My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long; For they are confounded, For they are brought to shame Who seek my hurt.
