Prayer of an Old Man for Deliverance.

1

 aIn You, O LORDh3068, I have takenh2620 refugeh2620; Let me neverh408h5769 be ashamedh954.

2

 aIn Your righteousnessh6666 deliverh5337 me and rescueh6403 me;  bInclineh5186 Your earh241 to me and saveh3467 me.

3

 aBe to me a rockh6697 of  bhabitationh4583 to which I may continuallyh8548 comeh935; You have givenh6680  ccommandmenth6680 to saveh3467 me, For You are  dmy  1rockh5553 and my fortressh4686b.

4

 aRescueh6403 me, O my Godh430, out of the handh3027 of the wickedh7563, Out of the  1grasph3709 of the wrongdoerh5765 and ruthlessh2556c manh2556c,

5

For You are my  ahopeh8615b; O Lordh136  1GODh3068, You are my  bconfidenceh4009 from my youthh5271.

6

 1By You I have been  asustainedh5564 from my birthh990; You are He who  btookh1491 me from my mother'sh517 wombh990; My  cpraiseh8416 is continuallyh8548  2of You.

7

I have becomeh1961 a  amarvelh4159 to manyh7227a, For You are  bmy strongh5797 refugeh4268.

8

My  amouthh6310 is filledh4390 with Your praiseh8416 And with  bYour gloryh8597 allh3605 dayh3117 long.

9

Do not casth7993 me offh7993 in the  atimeh6256 of oldh2209 ageh2209; Do not forsakeh5800a me when my strengthh3581b failsh3615.

10

For my enemiesh340 have spokenh559  1against me; And those who  awatchh8104 for my  2lifeh5315  bhave consultedh3289 togetherh3164a,

11

Sayingh559, " aGodh430 has forsakenh5800a him; Pursueh7291 and seizeh8610 him, for thereh369 is  bnoh369 oneh369 to deliverh5337."

12

O Godh430,  ado not be farh7368 from me; O my Godh430,  bhastenh2363a to my helph5833!

13

Let those who are adversariesh7853 of my soulh5315 be  aashamedh954 and consumedh3615; Let them be  bcoveredh5844a with reproachh2781 and dishonorh3639, who  cseekh1245  1to injureh7463a me.

14

But as for me, I will  ahopeh3176 continuallyh8548, And will  1 bpraiseh8416 You yeth3254 moreh3254 and moreh3254.

15

My  amouthh6310 shall tellh5608 of Your righteousnessh6666 And of  bYour salvationh8668 allh3605 dayh3117 long; For I  cdo not knowh3045 the  1sumh5615 of them.

16

I will comeh935  awith the mightyh1369 deedsh1369 of the Lordh136  1GODh3068; I will  bmakeh2142 mentionh2142 of Your righteousnessh6666, Yours aloneh905.

17

O Godh430, You  ahave taughth3925 me from my youthh5271, And I stillh5704h2008  bdeclareh5046 Your wondroush6381 deedsh6381.

18

And evenh1571 whenh5704 I am  aoldh2209 and grayh7872, O Godh430, do not forsakeh5800a me, Untilh5704 I  bdeclareh5046 Your  1strengthh2220 to this generationh1755, Your powerh1369 to allh3605 who are to comeh935.

19

 1For Your  arighteousnessh6666, O Godh430, reaches to the  2heavensh4791, You whoh834 have  bdoneh6213a greath1419 thingsh1419; O Godh430,  cwhoh4310 is likeh3644 You?

20

You whoh834 have  ashownh7200  1me manyh7227a troublesh6869a and distressesh7463a Will  breviveh2421a  1me againh7725, And will bringh5927  1me up againh7725  cfrom the depthsh8415 of the earthh776.

21

May You increaseh7235a my  agreatnessh1420 And turnh5437 to  bcomforth5162 me.

22

I will alsoh1571 praiseh3034 You with  1 aa harph5035b, Even Your  2truthh571, O my Godh430; To You I will singh2167 praisesh2167 with the  blyreh3658, O  cHolyh6918 Oneh6918 of Israelh3478.

23

My lipsh8193 will  ashouth7442 for joyh7442 whenh3588 I singh2167 praisesh2167 to You; And my  bsoulh5315, whichh834 You have redeemedh6299.

24

My  atongueh3956 alsoh1571 will utterh1897 Your righteousnessh6666 allh3605 dayh3117 long; For they are  bashamedh954, for they are humiliatedh2659 who seekh1245  1my hurth7463a.
