¹ IN thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be confounded.² Deliver me in thy righteousness and rescue me; incline thine ear to me and save me.³ Be thou to me a sheltering rock whereunto I may continually resort; give thou commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.⁴ Deliver me, O God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.⁵ For thou art my hope, O LORD; thou art my trust from my youth, O God.⁶ By thee have I been sustained from the womb; thou art my hope since I was in my mothers body; my praise is continually of thee.⁷ I am as a wonder to many; but thou art my strong refuge.⁸ Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honor all the day.⁹ Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength fails.¹⁰ For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lie 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 ashamed and embarrassed who envy my soul: let them be covered with shame that seek my hurt.

¹⁴ But I will pray continually, and will praise thee yet more and more.¹⁵ My mouth shall show forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day, for I cannot read.¹⁶ I will go in the strength of the LORD; I will make mention of thy righteousness even of thine only.¹⁷ O God, thou hast taught me from my youth, so that I might declare thy wondrous works.¹⁸ Now also to old age and gray hairs, O God, forsake me not; until I have shown thy strength and thy might to the generation that is to come.¹⁹ Thy righteousness also, O God, has reached to the highest; thou hast done great things; O God, who is like unto thee!²⁰ Thou who hast shown me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.²¹ Thou hast increased my greatness, and hast returned to comfort me.²² I will also praise thee with the psaltery, I will sing to thy truth, O my God; unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.²³ My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.²⁴ My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long; for they are confounded, for they are brought to shame that seek my hurt.
