Most Popular Bible Verses in Psalm 71
Psalm Rank:
Let me never be
Do not cast me off nor send me away in the time of old age;
Do not abandon me when my strength fails and I am weak.
My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to You,
And my soul, which You have redeemed.
Upon You have I relied and been sustained from my birth;
You are He who took me from my mother’s womb and You have been my benefactor from that day.
My praise is continually of You.
You who have shown
Will revive and renew me again,
And will bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
For You are my hope;
O Lord God, You are my trust and the source of my confidence from my youth.
O God, You have taught me from my youth,
And I still declare Your wondrous works and miraculous deeds.
And even when I am old and gray-headed, O God, do not abandon me,
Until I declare Your [mighty] strength to this generation,
Your power to all who are to come.
Be to me a rock of refuge and a sheltering stronghold to which I may continually come;
You have given the commandment to save me,
For You are my rock and my fortress.
But as for me, I will wait and hope continually,
And will praise You yet more and more.
Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the [height of the] heavens,
You who have done great things;
O God, who is like You, [who is Your equal]?
My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness
And of Your [deeds of] salvation all day long,
For their number is more than I know.
I will also praise You with the harp,
Your truth and faithfulness, O my God;
To You I will sing praises with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord God [and in His strength];
I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.
Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked (godless),
From the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.
In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
Incline Your ear to me and save me.
I am as a wonder to many,
For You are my strong refuge.
Let those who attack my life be ashamed and consumed;
Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek to injure me.
For my enemies have spoken against me;
Those who watch for my life have consulted together,
My tongue also will speak of Your righteousness all day long;
For they are ashamed, for they are humiliated who seek my injury.
Saying, “God has abandoned him;
Pursue and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.”
