1.    In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.     In you, O Lord, have I put my hope; let me never be shamed.     In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
 
2.    Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.     Keep me safe in your righteousness, and come to my help; give ear to my voice, and be my saviour.     Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.
 
3.    Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.     Be my strong Rock, the strong place of my salvation; for you are my Rock, and my safe place.     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.
 
4.    Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.     O my God, take me out of the hand of the sinner, out of the hand of the evil and cruel man.     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, Lord Yahweh; my confidence from my youth.     For you are my hope, O Lord God; I have had faith in you from the time when I was young.     For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.
 
6.    I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother's womb. I will always praise you.     You have been my support from the day of my birth; you took me out of my mother's body; my praise will be ever of you.     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.
 
7.    I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.     I am a wonder to all; but you are my strong tower.     I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.
 
8.    My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all the day.     My mouth will be full of your praise and glory all the day.     Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.
 
9.    Don't reject me in my old age. Don't forsake me when my strength fails.     Do not give me up when I am old; be my help even when my strength is gone.     Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
 
10.    For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,     For my haters are waiting secretly for me; and those who are watching for my soul are banded together in their evil designs,     For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,
 
11.    saying, "God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him."     Saying, God has given him up; go after him and take him, for he has no helper.     Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.
 
12.    God, don't be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.     O God, be not far from me; O my God, come quickly to my help.     O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
 
13.    Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.     Let those who say evil against my soul be overcome and put to shame; let my haters be made low and have no honour.     Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.
 
14.    But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.     But I will go on ever hoping, and increasing in all your praise.     But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.
 
15.    My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don't know its full measure.     My mouth will make clear your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for they are more than may be measured.     My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.
 
16.    I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Yahweh. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.     I will give news of the great acts of the Lord God; my words will be of your righteousness, and of yours only.     I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.
 
17.    God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.     O God, you have been my teacher from the time when I was young; and I have been talking of your works of wonder even till now.     O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.
 
18.    Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, don't forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.     Now when I am old and grey-headed, O God, give me not up; till I have made clear your strength to this generation, and your power to all those to come.     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.
 
19.    Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?     Your righteousness, O God, is very high; you have done great things; O God, who is like you?     Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!
 
20.    You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.     You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.     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.
 
21.    Increase my honor, and comfort me again.     You will make me greater than before, and give me comfort on every side.     Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
 
22.    I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.     I will give praise to you with instruments of music, O my God, for you are true; I will make songs to you with music, O Holy One of Israel.     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.
 
23.    My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!     Joy will be on my lips when I make melody to you; and in my soul, to which you have given salvation.     My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.
 
24.    My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.     My tongue will be talking of your righteousness all the day; for those whose purpose is to do me evil have been crushed and put to shame.     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.
