Tehillim 71:13-24 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

13. Let them be ashamed and consumed that are [satanic] adversaries to my nefesh; let them be covered with cherpah (reproach) and dishonor that seek my hurt.

14. But I will hope tamid (continually), and will yet give tehillah to Thee more and more.

15. My mouth shall proclaim Thy tzedakah and Thy Teshuah (salvation) kol hayom; for I know not the limits thereof.

16. I will come in the gevurot (mighty acts) of Adonoi Hashem; I will make mention of Thy tzedakah, even of Thine only.

17. O Elohim, Thou hast taught me from my youth; and hitherto have I declared Thy nifle'ot (wondrous works).

18. Now also when I am in ziknah (old age) and grayheaded, O Elohim, forsake me not; until I have declared Thy zero'a [Moshiach; see Isa 53:1] unto this generation, and Thy gevurah to everyone that is to come.

19. Thy tzedakah also, O Elohim, is ad marom (to the heights). Thou Who hast done gedolot (great things); O Elohim, mi khamocha (who is like unto Thee)?

20. Thou, which hast showed me great and severe tzoros, shalt revive me again, and shalt bring me up again from the tehomot (abysses) of ha'aretz.

21. Thou shalt increase my gedolah, and comfort me on every side.

22. I will also praise Thee with the nevel (lyre), even Thy emes, O Elohai; unto Thee will I sing with the kinnor (harp), O Thou Kadosh Yisroel.

23. My lips shall shout for joy when I sing unto Thee; and my nefesh, which Thou hast purchased for redemption.

24. My leshon also shall tell of Thy tzedakah kol hayom; for they are brought unto shame, they are humiliated that seek my hurt.
