Tree Of Life Version

Psalms 71:10-22 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

10. For my enemies speak against me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,

11. saying: “God has forsaken him— Pursue and take him, for no one will deliver.”

12. O God, be not far from me! My God, come quickly to help me.

13. Let the accusers of my soul be disgraced and destroyed. Let those who seek to harm me be covered with scorn and confusion.

14. But I—I will hope continually and will praise You more and more.

15. My mouth will recount Your justice and Your salvation all day, though I do not know the sum of them.

16. I come because of the mighty deeds of Adonai my Lord. I will remember Your righteousness —Yours alone.

17. God, You taught me from my youth, and I still keep declaring Your wonders.

18. So even until I am old and gray, O God, do not forsake me, till I tell of Your strong arm to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.

19. For Your righteousness, O God, reaches to high heaven. You have done great things— O God, who is like You?

20. You made me see many troubles and evils —You will revive me again— from the depths of the earth You will bring me up again.

21. You will increase my greatness, and comfort me once again.

22. So I will praise You with the harp for your truth, O my God. I will sing praises to You with the lyre O Holy One of Israel.
