✧1In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame. ✧2In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me. ✧3Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress. ✧4Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless. ✧5For You are my hope, O Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth. ✧6I have leaned on You since birth; You pulled me from my mother’s womb. My praise is always for You. ✧7I have become a portent to many, but You are my strong refuge. ✧8My mouth is filled with Your praise and with Your splendor all day long. ✧9Do not discard me in my old age; do not forsake me when my strength fails.

✧10For my enemies speak against me, and those who lie in wait for my life conspire,
✧11saying, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”
✧12Be not far from me, O God. Hurry, O my God, to help me.
✧13May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace.
✧14But I will always hope and will praise You more and more.
✧15My mouth will declare Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot know their full measure.
✧16I will enter in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness—Yours alone.
✧17O God, You have taught me from my youth, and to this day I proclaim Your marvelous deeds.
✧18Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.
✧19Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God, You who have done great things. Who, O God, is like You?
✧20Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes, You will revive me once again. Even from the depths of the earth You will bring me back up.
✧21You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
✧22So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
✧23When I sing praise to You my lips will shout for joy, along with my soul, which You have redeemed.
✧24My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded.
