Psalms 71:1-12 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

1. In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age.

2. In Thy righteousness Thou dost deliver me, And dost cause me to escape, Incline unto me Thine ear, and save me.

3. Be to me for a rock--a habitation, To go in continually, Thou hast given command to save me, For my rock and my bulwark [art] Thou.

4. O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.

5. For Thou [art] my hope, O Lord Jehovah, My trust from my youth.

6. By Thee I have been supported from the womb, From my mother's bowels Thou dost cut me out, In Thee [is] my praise continually.

7. As a wonder I have been to many, And Thou [art] my strong refuge.

8. Filled is my mouth [with] Thy praise, All the day [with] Thy beauty.

9. Cast me not off at the time of old age, According to the consumption of my power forsake me not.

10. For mine enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,

11. Saying, `God hath forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.'

12. O God, be not far from me, O my God, for my help make haste.
