Psalm 71 – A Song of Worship and Reflection

Psalm 71

71:1 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to

confusion.

71:2 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline

thine ear unto me, and save me.

71:3 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort:

thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my

fortress.

71:4 Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the

hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

71:5 For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my

youth.

71:6 By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that

took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise shall be continually of

thee.

71:7 I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

71:8 Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all

the day.

71:9 Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my

strength faileth.

71:10 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my

soul take counsel together,

71:11 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there

is none to deliver him.

71:12 O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.

71:13 Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my

soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my

hurt.

71:14 But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and

more.

71:15 My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation

all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.

71:16 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention

of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

71:17 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I

declared thy wondrous works.

71:18 Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not;

until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power

to every one that is to come.

71:19 Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great

things: O God, who is like unto thee!

71:20 Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt

quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the

earth.

71:21 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

71:22 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my

God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.

71:23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my

soul, which thou hast redeemed.

71:24 My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long:

for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my

hurt.
