Prayer of an Old Man for Deliverance. |
|
|
 |
| Psalm 71:1 |
|
In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; Let me
never be ashamed. |
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:2 |
|
In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue
me; Incline Your ear to me and save me. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:3 |
|
Be to me a rock of habitation to which I may
continually come; You have given commandment to save me, For You are my rock and
my fortress. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:4 |
|
Rescue me, O my God, out of the hand of the
wicked, Out of the grasp of the wrongdoer and ruthless man, |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:5 |
|
For You are my hope; O Lord GOD, You are my
confidence from my youth. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:6 |
|
By You I have been sustained from my birth;
You are He who took me from my mother's womb; My praise is continually of You. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:7 |
|
I have become a marvel to many, For You are
my strong refuge. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:8 |
|
My mouth is filled with Your praise And with
Your glory all day long. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:9 |
|
Do not cast me off in the time of old age; Do
not forsake me when my strength fails. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:10 |
|
For my enemies have spoken against me; And those
who watch for my life have consulted together, |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:11 |
|
Saying, "God has forsaken him; Pursue and seize
him, for there is no one to deliver." |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:12 |
|
O God, do not be far from me; O my God, hasten
to my help! |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:13 |
|
Let those who are adversaries of my soul be
ashamed and consumed; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek
to injure me. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:14 |
|
But as for me, I will hope continually, And
will praise You yet more and more. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:15 |
|
My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And
of Your salvation all day long; For I do not know the sum of them. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:16 |
|
I will come with the mighty deeds of the Lord
GOD; I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:17 |
|
O God, You have taught me from my youth, And
I still declare Your wondrous deeds. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:18 |
|
And even when I am old and gray, O God, do not
forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to this generation, Your power to all
who are to come. |
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:19 |
|
For Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the
heavens, You who have done great things; O God, who is like You? |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:20 |
|
You who have shown me many troubles and distresses
Will revive me again, And will bring me up again from the depths of the earth. |
| |
|
|
| Psalm 71:21 |
|
May You increase my greatness And turn to comfort
me. |
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:22 |
|
I will also praise You with a harp, Even Your
truth, O my God; To You I will sing praises with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel. |
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:23 |
|
My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises
to You; And my soul, which You have redeemed. |
|
|
|
|
| Psalm 71:24 |
|
My tongue also will utter Your righteousness
all day long; For they are ashamed, for they are humiliated who seek my hurt. |
