 神是人自幼到老的倚靠

71 耶和華啊!我投靠你,

求你使我永不羞愧。

求你按著你的公義搭救我,救贖我;

求你留心聽我,拯救我。

求你作我避難的磐石,使我可以常來投靠;

你已經下令救我,

因為你是我的巖石、我的堅壘。

我的 神啊!求你救我脫離惡人的手,

脫離邪惡和殘暴的人的掌握,

因為你是我的盼望;

主耶和華啊!你是我自幼以來所倚靠的。

我自出母胎就倚賴你,

把我從母腹中領出來的就是你,

我要常常讚美你。

眾人都以我為怪,

但你是我堅固的避難所。

我要滿口讚美你,

我終日頌揚你的榮美。

我年老的時候,求你不要丟棄我;

我氣力衰弱的時候,求你不要離棄我。

10 因為我的仇敵議論我;

那些窺探著要害我性命的,一同商議,

11 說:“ 神已經離棄了他,

你們追趕他,拿住他吧!

因為沒有人搭救他。”

12  神啊!求你不要遠離我;

我的 神啊!求你快來幫助我。

13 願那些控告我的,

都羞愧滅亡;

願那些謀求害我的,

都蒙羞受辱。

14 至於我,我要常常仰望你,

要多多讚美你。

15 我的口要述說你的公義,

終日講述你的救恩,

儘管我不知道它們的數量。

16 我要來述說主耶和華大能的事;

我要提說你獨有的公義。

17  神啊!我自幼以來,你就教導我;

直到現在,我還是宣揚你奇妙的作為。

18  神啊!到我年老髮白的時候,

求你仍不要離棄我,

等我把你的能力向下一代傳揚,

把你的大能向後世所有的人傳揚。

19  神啊!你的公義達到高天,

你曾經行過大事,

 神啊!有誰像你呢?

20 你使我們經歷了很多苦難,

你必使我們再活過來,

你必把我們從地的深處救上來。

21 你必增加我的尊榮,

並轉過來安慰我。

22 我的 神啊!

我要彈琴稱讚你,稱讚你的信實;

以色列的聖者啊!

我要鼓瑟歌頌你。

23 我歌頌你的時候,我的嘴唇要歡呼;

我的靈魂,就是你所救贖的,也要歡呼。

24 我的舌頭也要終日講述你的公義,

因為那些謀求害我的人已經蒙羞受辱了。

71 In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.

Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.

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.

Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

For thou art my hope, O Lord God: thou art my trust from my youth.

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.

I am as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.

Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.

Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

10 For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,

11 Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute 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 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 hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.

15 My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness and thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.

16 I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

17 O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.

18 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 Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!

20 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 Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.

22 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 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 unto shame, that seek my hurt.

God the Rock of Salvation

71 In (A)You, O Lord, I put my trust;
Let me never be put to shame.
(B)Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape;
(C)Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
(D)Be my [a]strong refuge,
To which I may resort continually;
You have given the (E)commandment to save me,
For You are my rock and my fortress.

(F)Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked,
Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
For You are (G)my hope, O Lord God;
You are my trust from my youth.
(H)By You I have been [b]upheld from birth;
You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb.
My praise shall be continually of You.

(I)I have become as a wonder to many,
But You are my strong refuge.
Let (J)my mouth be filled with Your praise
And with Your glory all the day.

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 lie in wait for my life (K)take counsel together,
11 Saying, “God has forsaken him;
Pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him.

12 (L)O God, do not be far from me;
O my God, (M)make haste to help me!
13 Let them be [c]confounded and consumed
Who are adversaries of my life;
Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor
Who seek my hurt.

14 But I will hope continually,
And will praise You yet more and more.
15 My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness
And Your salvation all the day,
For I do not know their limits.
16 I will go in the strength of the Lord God;
I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.

17 O God, You have taught me from my (N)youth;
And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.
18 Now also (O)when I am old and grayheaded,
O God, do not forsake me,
Until I declare Your strength to this generation,
Your power to everyone who is to come.

19 Also (P)Your righteousness, O God, is [d]very high,
You who have done great things;
(Q)O God, who is like You?
20 (R)You, who have shown me great and severe troubles,
(S)Shall revive me again,
And bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
21 You shall increase my greatness,
And comfort me on every side.

22 Also (T)with the lute I will praise You—
And Your faithfulness, O my God!
To You I will sing with the harp,
O (U)Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You,
And (V)my soul, which You have redeemed.
24 My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long;
For they are confounded,
For they are brought to shame
Who seek my hurt.

老年人的祈祷

71 耶和华啊,我投靠你,
    求你叫我永不羞愧!
求你凭你的公义搭救我,救拔我;
    侧耳听我,拯救我!
求你作我常来栖身[a]的磐石,
    你已经吩咐要救我,
    因为你是我的岩石、我的山寨。

我的 神啊,求你救我脱离恶人的手,
    脱离不义和残暴之人的手。
主耶和华啊,你是我所盼望的;
    自我年幼,你是我所倚靠的。
我自出母胎被你扶持,
    使我出母腹的是你。
我要常常赞美你!

许多人看我为异类,
    但你是我坚固的避难所。
我要满口述说赞美你的话
    终日荣耀你。
我年老的时候,求你不要丢弃我!
    我体力衰弱时,求你不要离弃我!
10 我的仇敌议论我,
    那些窥探要害我命的一同商议,
11 说:“ 神已经离弃他;
    你们去追赶他,捉拿他吧!
    因为没有人搭救。”

12  神啊,求你不要远离我!
    我的 神啊,求你速速帮助我!
13 愿那与我为敌的,羞愧灭亡;
    愿那谋害我的,受辱蒙羞。
14 我却要常常仰望,
    并要越发赞美你。
15 我的口要终日述说你的公义和你的救恩,
    因我无从计算其数。
16 我要述说主耶和华的大能,
    我单要提说你的公义。

17  神啊,自我年幼,你就教导我;
    直到如今,我传扬你奇妙的作为。
18  神啊,我年老发白的时候,
    求你不要离弃我!
等我宣扬你的能力给下一代,
    宣扬你的大能给后世的人。

19  神啊,你的公义极高;
    行过大事的 神啊,谁能像你?
20 你是叫我多经历重大急难的,
    必使我再活过来,
    从地的深处救我上来。
21 你必使我越发昌大,
    又转来安慰我。

22 我的 神啊,我要鼓瑟称谢你,
    称谢你的信实!
以色列的圣者啊,我要弹琴歌颂你!
23 我歌颂你的时候,我的嘴唇要欢呼;
    我的性命,就是你所救赎的,也要欢呼。
24 我的舌头也必终日讲论你的公义,
    因为那些谋害我的人已经蒙羞受辱了。
