1In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge;
2In Your justice, rescue and deliver me;
3Be my rock of refuge,
4Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,
5For You are my hope, O Lord GOD,
6I have leaned on You since birth;
7I have become a portent to many,
8My mouth is filled with Your praise
9Do not discard me in my old age;
10For my enemies speak against me,
11saying, “God has forsaken him;
12Be not far from me, O God.
13May the accusers of my soul
14But I will always hope
15My mouth will declare Your righteousness
16I will enter in the strength of the Lord GOD;
17O God, You have taught me from my youth,
18Even when I am old and gray,
19Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God,
20Though You have shown me many troubles and misfortunes,
21You will increase my honor
22So I will praise You with the harp
23When I sing praise to You
24My tongue will indeed proclaim
