Psalms 71

1 David, in confidence of faith, and experience of God's favour, prayeth both for himself, and against the enemies of his soul. 14 He promiseth constancy. 17 He prayeth for perserverance. 19 He praiseth God, and promiseth to do it cheerfully.

 71:1 ¶ In thee, O LORD, 3068 do I put my trust: 2620 z8804 let me never 408 5769 be put to confusion. 954 z8799

 71:2 Deliver 5337 z8686 me in thy righteousness, 6666 and cause me to escape: 6403 z8762 incline 5186 z8685 thine ear 241 unto x413 me, and save 3467 z8685 me.

 71:3 Be x1961 thou my strong 6697 habitation, 4583 whereunto I may continually 8548 resort: 935 z8800 thou hast given commandment 6680 z8765 to save 3467 z8687 me; for x3588 thou x859 [art] my rock 5553 and my fortress. 4686

 71:4 Deliver 6403 z8761 me, O my God, 430 out of the hand 3027 x4480 of the wicked, 7563 out of the hand 3709 x4480 of the unrighteous 5765 z8764 and cruel x2556 man. y2556 z8802

 71:5 For x3588 thou x859 [art] my hope, 8615 O Lord 136 GOD: 3069 [thou art] my trust 4009 from my youth. 5271 x4480

 71:6 By x5921 thee have I been holden up 5564 z8738 from the womb: 990 x4480 thou x859 art he that took 1491 z8802 me out of my mother's 517 bowels: 4578 x4480 my praise 8416 [shall be] continually 8548 of thee.

 71:7 I am x1961 as a wonder 4159 unto many; 7227 but thou x859 [art] my strong 5797 refuge. 4268

 71:8 Let my mouth 6310 be filled 4390 z8735 [with] thy praise 8416 [and with] thy honor 8597 all x3605 the day. 3117

 71:9 Cast me not off 7993 z8686 x408 in the time 6256 of old age; 2209 forsake 5800 z8799 me not x408 when my strength 3581 faileth. 3615 z8800

 71:10 For x3588 mine enemies 341 z8802 speak 559 z8804 against me; and they that lay wait y8104 z8802 for x8104 my soul 5315 take counsel 3289 z8738 together, 3162

 71:11 Saying, 559 z8800 God 430 hath forsaken 5800 z8804 him: persecute 7291 z8798 and take 8610 z8798 him; for x3588 [there is] none x369 to deliver 5337 z8688 [him].

 71:12 O God, 430 be not x408 far 7368 z8799 from x4480 me: O my God, 430 make haste 2439 y2363 z8798 z8675 for my help. 5833

 71:13 Let them be confounded 954 z8799 [and] consumed 3615 z8799 that are adversaries 7853 z8802 to my soul; 5315 let them be covered 5844 z8799 [with] reproach 2781 and dishonor 3639 that seek 1245 z8764 my hurt. 7451

 71:14 But I x589 will hope 3176 z8762 continually, 8548 and will yet praise 8416 thee more y3254 z8689 and more. 3254 z8689

 71:15 My mouth 6310 shall show forth 5608 z8762 thy righteousness 6666 [and] thy salvation 8668 all x3605 the day; 3117 for x3588 I know 3045 z8804 not x3808 the numbers 5615 [thereof].

 71:16 I will go x935 in y935 z8799 the strength 1369 of the Lord 136 GOD: 3069 I will make mention 2142 z8686 of thy righteousness, 6666 [even] of thine only. x905

 71:17 O God, 430 thou hast taught 3925 z8765 me from my youth: 5271 x4480 and hitherto x5704 x2008 have I declared 5046 z8686 thy wondrous works. 6381 z8737

 71:18 Now also x1571 when 5704 I am old 2209 and grayheaded, 7872 O God, 430 forsake 5800 z8799 me not; x408 until x5704 I have showed 5046 z8686 thy strength 2220 unto [this] generation, 1755 [and] thy power 1369 to every one x3605 [that] is to come. 935 z8799

 71:19 Thy righteousness 6666 also, O God, 430 [is] very x5704 high, 4791 who x834 hast done 6213 z8804 great things: 1419 O God, 430 who x4310 [is] like unto thee! x3644

 71:20 [Thou], which x834 hast showed 7200 z8689 me great 7227 and sore 7451 troubles, 6869 shalt quicken 2421 z8762 me again, 7725 z8799 and shalt bring me up 5927 z8686 again 7725 z8799 from the depths 8415 x4480 of the earth. 776

 71:21 Thou shalt increase 7235 z8686 my greatness, 1420 and comfort 5162 z8762 me on every side. 5437 z8735

 71:22 I x589 will also x1571 praise 3034 z8686 thee with the psaltery, 3627 5035 z8676 [even] thy truth, 571 O my God: 430 unto thee will I sing 2167 z8762 with the harp, 3658 O thou Holy One 6918 of Israel. 3478

 71:23 My lips 8193 shall greatly rejoice 7442 z8762 when x3588 I sing 2167 z8762 unto thee; and my soul, 5315 which x834 thou hast redeemed. 6299 z8804

 71:24 My tongue 3956 also x1571 shall talk 1897 z8799 of thy righteousness 6666 all x3605 the day 3117 long: for x3588 they are confounded, 954 z8804 for x3588 they are brought unto shame, 2659 z8804 that seek 1245 z8764 my hurt. 7451
