1
In Thee, O Jehovah, do I confide;
let me not be ashamed to eternity.
2
In Thy justice, rescue me and deliver me;
incline Thine ear to▵ me, and save me.
3
Be to me for a rock,
an abode, to come··into continually;
Thou hast commanded to save me;
for my rock◦ and my Bulwark art Thou◦.
4
O my God, deliver me from the hand of the wicked,
from the palm of the hand of him who is··perverse and fermenting.
5
For Thou◦ art my hope◦, O Lord Jehovih*;
my trust from my youth.
6
Upon Thee I have been supported from the belly;
Thou◦ art He who brought· me ·out◦ from my mother’s bowels;
my praise shall be continually in Thee.
7
I am as a miracle to many;
but Thou◦ art to me a protection of strength.
8
My mouth shall··be··filled with Thy praise,
with Thine adornment all the day.
9
Cast· me not ·away in the time of old··age;
forsake me not as my power is··all··consumed.
10
For my enemies talk concerning me;
and they who keep··watch··for my soul take··counsel together;
11
saying, God has forsaken him;
pursue and catch him; for there is none to rescue.
12
O God, be· not ·far from me;
O my God, hurry to my help.
13
Let them be··ashamed, let them be all··consumed, who oppose my soul;
let them be cloaked with reproach and humiliation who seek evil for me.
14
But I◦ will hope continually,
and I will add to all Thy praise.
15
My mouth shall recount◦ Thy justice, Thy salvation all the day;
for I know not the numbers thereof.
16
I will come··in the might of the Lord Jehovih;
I will make··mention of Thy justice, Thine alone.
17
O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth;
and even◦ now◦ I have told of Thy wonders.
18
And, even to◦ old··age and gray··hairs, O God, forsake me not;
until I have told of Thine arm to a generation, of Thy might to everyone who is to come,
19
and Thy justice, O God, even··to the height;
Thou, who hast done great things, O God, who is like··to▵ Thee?
20
Thou, who hast made me to see many and evil adversities,
Thou wilt return, Thou wilt make me live;
And from the abysses of the earth, Thou wilt return, Thou wilt make me come··up.
21
Thou wilt multiply my greatness.
And Thou wilt surround, Thou wilt comfort me.
22
I◦ will also confess Thee with the instrument of a psaltery, Thy truth, O my God;
I will sing··psalms to Thee with the harp, O Holy··One of Israel.
23
My lips shall sing··aloud, when◦ I sing··psalms to Thee;
and my soul which Thou hast ransomed.
24
My tongue also shall meditate··on Thy justice all the day;
for they are made to blush, for they are··ashamed, who seek evil for me.
