1. In you, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
  
2. Deliver me in your righteousness, and cause me to escape: turn your ear to me, and save me.
  
3. Be thou my strong habitation, to which I may continually resort: you have given commandment to save me; for you are my rock and my fortress.
  
4. Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
  
5. For you are my hope, O Lord GOD: you are my trust from my youth.
  
6. By you have I been held up from the womb: you are he that took me out of my mother's body: my praise shall be continually of you.
  
7. I am as a wonder to many; but you are my strong refuge.
  
8. Let my mouth be filled with your praise and with your honor 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 lay in wait for my soul take counsel together,
  
11. Saying, God has forsaken him: pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver him.
  
12. O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
  
13. Let them be put to shame and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonor that seek my hurt.
  
14. But I will hope continually, and will yet praise you more and more.
  
15. My mouth shall show forth your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for I do not know the number of your blessings.
  
16. I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours only.
  
17. O God, you have taught me from my youth: and until now have I declared your wondrous works.
  
18. Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, do not forsake me; until I have shown your strength to this generation, and your power to every one that is to come.
  
19. Your righteousness also, O God, is very high, who have done great things: O God, who is like unto you!
  
20. You, who have shown me great and evil troubles, shall revive me again, and shall bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
  
21. You shall increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
  
22. I will also praise you with the psaltery, even your truth, O my God: to you will I sing with the harp, O Holy One of Israel.
  
23. My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to you; and my soul, which you have redeemed.
  
24. My tongue also shall talk of your righteousness all the day long: for they are brought into perplexity, for they are brought to shame, that seek my hurt.
