Text

1	In you, O LORD, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame!
2	In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me; incline your ear to me, and save me!
3	Be to me a rock of refuge, to which I may continually come; you have given the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
4	Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
5	For you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O LORD, from my youth.
6	Upon you I have leaned from before my birth; you are he who took me from my mother's womb. My praise is continually of you.
7	I have been as a portent to many, but you are my strong refuge.
8	My mouth is filled with your praise, and with your glory all the day.
9	Do not cast me off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength is spent.
10	For my enemies speak concerning me; those who watch for my life consult together
11	and say, “God has forsaken him; pursue and seize him, for there is none to deliver him.”
12	O God, be not far from me; O my God, make haste to help me!
13	May my accusers be put to shame and consumed; with scorn and disgrace may they be covered who seek my hurt.
14	But I will hope continually and will praise you yet more and more.
15	My mouth will tell of your righteous acts, of your deeds of salvation all the day, for their number is past my knowledge.
16	With the mighty deeds of the Lord GOD I will come; I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.
17	O God, from my youth you have taught me, and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.
18	So even to old age and gray hairs, O God, do not forsake me, until I proclaim your might to another generation, your power to all those to come.
19	Your righteousness, O God, reaches the high heavens. You who have done great things, O God, who is like you?
20	You who have made me see many troubles and calamities will revive me again; from the depths of the earth you will bring me up again.
21	You will increase my greatness and comfort me again.
22	I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praises to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
23	My lips will shout for joy, when I sing praises to you; my soul also, which you have redeemed.
24	And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long, for they have been put to shame and disappointed who sought to do me hurt.

NIV

1	In you, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame.
2	Rescue me and deliver me in your righteousness; turn your ear to me and save me.
3	Be my rock of refuge, to which I can always go; give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
4	Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of evil and cruel men.
5	For you have been my hope, O Sovereign LORD, my confidence since my youth.
6	From birth I have relied on you; you brought me forth from my mother's womb. I will ever praise you.
7	I have become like a portent to many, but you are my strong refuge.
8	My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendor all day long.
9	Do not cast me away when I am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone.
10	For my enemies speak against me; those who wait to kill me conspire together.
11	They say, “God has forsaken him; pursue him and seize him, for no one will rescue him.”
12	Be not far from me, O God; come quickly, O my God, to help me.
13	May my accusers perish in shame; may those who want to harm me be covered with scorn and disgrace.
14	But as for me, I will always have hope; I will praise you more and more.
15	My mouth will tell of your righteousness, of your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure.
16	I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, O Sovereign LORD; I will proclaim your righteousness, yours alone.
17	Since my youth, O God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.
18	Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your might to all who are to come.
19	Your righteousness reaches to the skies, O God, you who have done great things. Who, O God, is like you?
20	Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up.
21	You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
22	I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
23	My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you- I, whom you have redeemed.
24	My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long, for those who wanted to harm me have been put to shame and confusion.

NLT

1	O LORD, I have come to you for protection; don't let me be disgraced.
2	Save me and rescue me, for you do what is right. Turn your ear to listen to me, and set me free.
3	Be my rock of safety where I can always hide. Give the order to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
4	My God, rescue me from the power of the wicked, from the clutches of cruel oppressors.
5	O Lord, you alone are my hope. I've trusted you, O LORD, from childhood.
6	Yes, you have been with me from birth; from my mother's womb you have cared for me. No wonder I am always praising you!
7	My life is an example to many, because you have been my strength and protection.
8	That is why I can never stop praising you; I declare your glory all day long.
9	And now, in my old age, don't set me aside. Don't abandon me when my strength is failing.
10	For my enemies are whispering against me. They are plotting together to kill me.
11	They say, “God has abandoned him. Let's go and get him, for no one will help him now.”
12	O God, don't stay away. My God, please hurry to help me.
13	Bring disgrace and destruction on my accusers. Humiliate and shame those who want to harm me.
14	But I will keep on hoping for your help; I will praise you more and more.
15	I will tell everyone about your righteousness. All day long I will proclaim your saving power, though I am not skilled with words.
16	I will praise your mighty deeds, O Sovereign LORD. I will tell everyone that you alone are just.
17	O God, you have taught me from my earliest childhood, and I constantly tell others about the wonderful things you do.
18	Now that I am old and gray, do not abandon me, O God. Let me proclaim your power to this new generation, your mighty miracles to all who come after me.
19	Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the highest heavens. You have done such wonderful things. Who can compare with you, O God?
20	You have allowed me to suffer much hardship, but you will restore me to life again and lift me up from the depths of the earth.
21	You will restore me to even greater honor and comfort me once again.
22	Then I will praise you with music on the harp, because you are faithful to your promises, O my God. I will sing praises to you with a lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
23	I will shout for joy and sing your praises, for you have ransomed me.
24	I will tell about your righteous deeds all day long, for everyone who tried to hurt me has been shamed and humiliated. A psalm of Solomon.

KJV

1	In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
2	Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.
3	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	Deliver me, O my 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 GOD: thou art my trust from my youth.
6	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 as a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.
8	Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honour all the day.
9	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 grayheaded, 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.
