 神是人自幼到老的倚靠

71 耶和华啊!我投靠你,

求你使我永不羞愧。

求你按着你的公义搭救我,救赎我;

求你留心听我,拯救我。

求你作我避难的盘石,使我可以常来投靠;

你已经下令救我,

因为你是我的岩石、我的坚垒。

我的 神啊!求你救我脱离恶人的手,

脱离邪恶和残暴的人的掌握,

因为你是我的盼望;

主耶和华啊!你是我自幼以来所倚靠的。

我自出母胎就倚赖你,

把我从母腹中领出来的就是你,

我要常常赞美你。

众人都以我为怪,

但你是我坚固的避难所。

我要满口赞美你,

我终日颂扬你的荣美。

我年老的时候,求你不要丢弃我;

我气力衰弱的时候,求你不要离弃我。

10 因为我的仇敌议论我;

那些窥探着要害我性命的,一同商议,

11 说:“ 神已经离弃了他,

你们追赶他,拿住他吧!

因为没有人搭救他。”

12  神啊!求你不要远离我;

我的 神啊!求你快来帮助我。

13 愿那些控告我的,

都羞愧灭亡;

愿那些谋求害我的,

都蒙羞受辱。

14 至于我,我要常常仰望你,

要多多赞美你。

15 我的口要述说你的公义,

终日讲述你的救恩,

尽管我不知道它们的数量。

16 我要来述说主耶和华大能的事;

我要提说你独有的公义。

17  神啊!我自幼以来,你就教导我;

直到现在,我还是宣扬你奇妙的作为。

18  神啊!到我年老发白的时候,

求你仍不要离弃我,

等我把你的能力向下一代传扬,

把你的大能向后世所有的人传扬。

19  神啊!你的公义达到高天,

你曾经行过大事,

 神啊!有谁像你呢?

20 你使我们经历了很多苦难,

你必使我们再活过来,

你必把我们从地的深处救上来。

21 你必增加我的尊荣,

并转过来安慰我。

22 我的 神啊!

我要弹琴称赞你,称赞你的信实;

以色列的圣者啊!

我要鼓瑟歌颂你。

23 我歌颂你的时候,我的嘴唇要欢呼;

我的灵魂,就是你所救赎的,也要欢呼。

24 我的舌头也要终日讲述你的公义,

因为那些谋求害我的人已经蒙羞受辱了。

O God, Do Not Forsake Me

71 (A)In You, O Yahweh, I have taken refuge;
Let me never be ashamed.
(B)In Your righteousness deliver me and protect me;
(C)Incline Your ear to me and save me.
(D)Be to me a rock of (E)habitation to which I may continually come;
You have given the (F)command to save me,
For You are (G)my [a]rock and my fortress.
(H)Protect me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked,
Out of the [b]grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man,
For You are my (I)hope;
O Lord Yahweh, You are my (J)trust from my youth.
[c]By You I have been (K)sustained from my birth;
You are He who (L)took me from my mother’s womb;
My (M)praise is continually [d]of You.

I have become a (N)marvel to many,
For You are (O)my strong refuge.
My (P)mouth is filled with Your praise
And with (Q)Your beauty all day long.
Do not cast me off in the (R)time of old age;
Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
10 For my enemies have spoken [e]against me;
And those who (S)watch my [f]life (T)have counseled together,
11 Saying, “(U)God has forsaken him;
Pursue and seize him, for there is (V)no one to deliver.”

12 O God, (W)do not be far from me;
O my God, (X)hasten to my help!
13 Let those who accuse my soul be (Y)ashamed and consumed;
Let them be (Z)wrapped up with reproach and dishonor, who (AA)seek [g]to do me evil.
14 But as for me, I will (AB)wait continually,
And will [h](AC)praise You yet more and more.
15 My (AD)mouth shall recount Your righteousness
And (AE)Your salvation all day long;
For I (AF)do not know the [i]sum of them.
16 I will come (AG)with the mighty deeds of Lord Yahweh;
I will (AH)bring to remembrance Your righteousness, Yours alone.

17 O God, You (AI)have taught me from my youth,
And I still (AJ)declare Your wondrous deeds.
18 And even when I am (AK)old and gray, O God, do not forsake me,
Until I (AL)declare Your [j]strength to this generation,
Your might to all who are to come.
19 [k]For Your (AM)righteousness, O God, reaches to the [l]heavens,
You who have (AN)done great things;
O God, (AO)who is like You?
20 You, who have (AP)shown [m]me many troubles and [n]evils,
Will (AQ)revive [o]me again,
And will bring [p]me up again (AR)from the depths of the earth.
21 May You increase my (AS)greatness
And turn to (AT)comfort me.

22 I will also praise You with [q](AU)a harp,
Even Your [r]truth, O my God;
To You I will sing praises with the (AV)lyre,
O (AW)Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips will (AX)sing for joy when I sing praises to You;
And my (AY)soul, which You have redeemed.
24 My (AZ)tongue also will utter Your righteousness all day long;
For they are (BA)ashamed, for they are humiliated who seek [s]to do me evil.
