Psalms 71: 1 - 6, 15 - 17
|
| 1
|
In thee, O LORD, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame!
|
| 2
|
In thy righteousness deliver me and rescue me; incline thy ear to me, and save me!
|
| 3
|
Be thou to me a rock of refuge, a strong fortress, to save me, for thou art my rock and my fortress.
|
| 4
|
Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
|
| 5
|
For thou, O Lord, art my hope, my trust, O LORD, from my youth.
|
| 6
|
Upon thee I have leaned from my birth; thou art he who took me from my mother's womb. My praise is continually of thee.
|
| 15
|
My mouth will tell of thy righteous acts, of thy deeds of salvation all the day, for their number is past my knowledge.
|
| 16
|
With the mighty deeds of the Lord GOD I will come, I will praise thy righteousness, thine alone.
|
| 17
|
O God, from my youth thou hast taught me, and I still proclaim thy wondrous deeds.
