1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1 LORD, I seek refuge in You; let me never be disgraced.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; listen closely to me and save me.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3Be a rock of refuge for me, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and fortress.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4Deliver me, my God, from the power of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and oppressive.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5For You are my hope, Lord GOD, my confidence from my youth.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6I have leaned on You from birth; You took me from my mother's womb. My praise is always about You.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7I have become an ominous sign to many, but You are my strong refuge.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8My mouth is full of praise and honor to You all day long.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9Don't discard me in my old age; as my strength fails, do not abandon me.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10For my enemies talk about me, and those who spy on me plot together,
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11saying, "God has abandoned him; chase him and catch him, for there is no one to rescue him."
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12God, do not be far from me; my God, hurry to help me.
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13May my adversaries be disgraced and destroyed; may those who seek my harm be covered with disgrace and humiliation.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14But I will hope continually and will praise You more and more.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15My mouth will tell about Your righteousness and Your salvation all day long, though I cannot sum them up.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16I come because of the mighty acts of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness, Yours alone.
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17God, You have taught me from my youth, and I still proclaim Your wonderful works.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18Even when I am old and gray, God, do not abandon me. Then I will proclaim Your power to another generation, Your strength to all who are to come.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19Your righteousness reaches heaven, God, You who have done great things; God, who is like You?
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20You caused me to experience many troubles and misfortunes, but You will revive me again. You will bring me up again, even from the depths of the earth.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22Therefore, I will praise You with a harp for Your faithfulness, my God; I will sing to You with a lyre, Holy One of Israel.
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to You because You have redeemed me.
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24Therefore, my tongue will proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm will be disgraced and confounded.
