For the choirmaster. A Psalm - of David. O LORD , I have taken refuge ; let me never ... be put to shame ; save me by Your righteousness.
| LXX |
Incline Your ear to me ; come quickly to my rescue. Be rock of refuge , the stronghold ... of my deliverance.
| LXX |
For You are my rock and my fortress ; lead me and guide me for the sake of Your name.
| LXX |
You free me from the net - laid out for You are my refuge.
| LXX |
Into Your hands I commit my spirit ; You have redeemed me , - O LORD , God of tRuth -.
| LXX |
I hate those who cling to worthless idols ... , but in the LORD I trust.
| LXX |
I will be glad and rejoice in Your loving devotion , for You have seen - my affliction ; You have known the anguish of my soul.
| LXX |
You have not delivered me to the enemy ; You have set my feet in the open.
| LXX |
Be merciful to me , O LORD , for I am in distress my eyes fail from sorrow , my soul and body as well.
| LXX |
For my life is consumed with grief and my years with groaning ; my iniquity has drained my strength , and my bones are wasting away.
| LXX |
Among all my enemies I am a disgrace , and among my neighbors even more. I am dreaded by my friends — they flee when they see me on the street.
| LXX |
I am forgotten like a dead man , out of mind. I am like a broken vessel.
| LXX |
For I hear the slander of many ; there is terror on every side. They conspire ... against me (and) plot to take my life.
| LXX |
But I trust in You , O LORD ; I say , “ You are my God. ”
| LXX |
My times (are) in Your hands ; deliver me from my enemies and from those who pursue me.
| LXX |
Make Your face shine on Your servant ; save me by Your loving devotion.
| LXX |
O LORD , let me not be ashamed , for I have called on You. Let the wicked be put to shame ; let them lie silent in Sheol.
| LXX |
May lying lips be silenced — (lips that) speak with arrogance against the righteous , full of pride and contempt.
| LXX |
How great is Your goodness which You have laid up for those who fear You , which You have bestowed before the sons of men on those who take refuge
| LXX |
You hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the schemes of men. You conceal them in Your shelter from accusing tongues.
| LXX |
Blessed be the LORD , for He has shown His loving devotion in a city under siege.
| LXX |
In my alarm I said , “ I am cut off from Your sight ! ” But You heard my plea for mercy when I called to You for help.
| LXX |
Love - the LORD , all His saints. The LORD preserves the faithful , but fully ... repays the arrogant ....
| LXX |
Be strong and courageous ... , all you who hope in the LORD.
| LXX |
