New Testament

Psalms 71:8-17 Modern English Version (MEV)

8. My mouth will be filled with Your praiseand 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 watch for my life take counsel together,

11. saying, “God has forsaken him;pursue and catch him,for there is none to deliver him.”

12. O God, do not be far from me;O my God, act quickly to help me.

13. May the adversaries of my life be ashamed and confused;may those who seek my harmbe enveloped in scorn and dishonor.

14. But I will hope continually,and will add to all Your praise.

15. My mouth will declare Your righteousnessand Your salvation all the day,for I cannot know their numbers.

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 until now I have proclaimed Your wondrous works.
