1. In you, O Lord, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame;in your righteousness deliver me!
2. Incline your ear to me;rescue me speedily!Be a rock of refuge for me,a strong fortress to save me!
3. For you are my rock and my fortress;and for your name’s sake you lead me and guide me;
4. you take me out of the net they have hidden for me,for you are my refuge.
5. Into your hand I commit my spirit;you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God.
6. I hate those who pay regard to worthless idols,but I trust in the Lord.
7. I will rejoice and be glad in your steadfast love,because you have seen my affliction;you have known the distress of my soul,
8. and you have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy;you have set my feet in a broad place.
9. Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am in distress; my eye is wasted from grief;my soul and my body also.
10. For my life is spent with sorrow,and my years with sighing;my strength fails because of my iniquity,and my bones waste away.
11. Because of all my adversaries I have become a reproach,especially to my neighbors,and an object of dread to my acquaintances;those who see me in the street flee from me.
12. I have been forgotten like one who is dead;I have become like a broken vessel.
13. For I hear the whispering of many—terror on every side!— as they scheme together against me,as they plot to take my life.
