- 0:03Speaker 1: Psalm seventy one. In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never
- 0:08Speaker 1: let me be put to shame. Deliver me in your
- 0:11Speaker 1: righteousness and rescue me. Turn your ear to me and
- 0:14Speaker 1: save me. Be to me a rock of refuge to
- 0:17Speaker 1: which I may always go. Give the command to save me,
- 0:21Speaker 1: for you are my rock and my fortress. Rescue me,
- 0:24Speaker 1: my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the
- 0:27Speaker 1: hand of the unrighteous and cruel man. For you are
- 0:30Speaker 1: my hope, Lord, Yahweh, my confidence from my youth. I
- 0:34Speaker 1: have relied on you from the womb. You are he
- 0:36Speaker 1: who took me out of my mother's womb. I will
- 0:39Speaker 1: always praise you. I am a marvel to many, but
- 0:42Speaker 1: you are my strong refuge. My mouth shall be filled
- 0:45Speaker 1: with your praise, with your honor all the day. Don't
- 0:49Speaker 1: reject me in my old age. Don't forsake me when
- 0:52Speaker 1: my strength fails. For my enemies talk about me. Those
- 0:55Speaker 1: who watch for my soul conspire together saying God has
- 0:59Speaker 1: forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will
- 1:02Speaker 1: rescue him. God, don't be far from me, My God,
- 1:06Speaker 1: hurry to help me. Let my accusers be put to
- 1:09Speaker 1: shame and consumed let them be covered with disgrace and
- 1:12Speaker 1: scorn who want to harm me. But I will always
- 1:16Speaker 1: hope and will add to all of your praise. My
- 1:19Speaker 1: mouth will tell about your righteousness and of your salvation
- 1:23Speaker 1: all day, though I don't know its full measure. I
- 1:26Speaker 1: will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Yahweh.
- 1:29Speaker 1: I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone. God,
- 1:33Speaker 1: you have taught me from my youth until now I
- 1:36Speaker 1: have declared your wondrous works. Yes, even when I am
- 1:39Speaker 1: old and gray haired. God, don't forsake me until I
- 1:42Speaker 1: have declared your strength to the next generation, your might
- 1:46Speaker 1: to every one who is to come. Your righteousness also,
- 1:50Speaker 1: God reaches to the heavens. You have done great things. God,
- 1:53Speaker 1: who is like you, You who have shown us many
- 1:57Speaker 1: and bitter troubles, You will let me live. You will
- 2:00Speaker 1: bring us up again from the depths of the earth,
- 2:02Speaker 1: increase my honor and comfort me again. I will also
- 2:06Speaker 1: praise you with the heart for your faithfulness, My God.
- 2:09Speaker 1: I will sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy
- 2:11Speaker 1: One of Israel. My lips shall shout for joy my soul,
- 2:15Speaker 1: which you have redeemed, sings praises to you. My tongue
- 2:19Speaker 1: will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for
- 2:22Speaker 1: they are put to shame and they are confounded. Who
- 2:25Speaker 1: want to harm me?
