1  ^rIn you, O Lord, do I take refuge;

let me never be put to shame;

^sin your righteousness deliver me!

2  Incline your ear to me;

rescue me speedily!

Be a ^trock of refuge for me,

a strong fortress to save me!

3  For you are my rock and my fortress;

and ^ufor your name’s sake you lead me and guide me;

4  ^vyou take me out of the net they have hidden for me,

for you are my refuge.

5  ^wInto your hand I commit my spirit;

you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God.

6  ^xI hate¹ those who pay regard to worthless idols,

but I trust in the Lord.

7  I will rejoice and be ^yglad 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 ^zbroad place.

9  Be gracious to me, O Lord, for ^aI am in distress;

^bmy eye is wasted from grief;

my soul and my body also.

10  For my life is spent with sorrow,

and my years with ^csighing;

my strength fails because of my iniquity,

and ^dmy 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 ^eacquaintances;

those who see me in the street flee from me.

12  ^fI have been forgotten like one who is dead;

I have become ^glike a broken vessel.

13  For ^hI hear the whispering of many—

terror on every side!—

as they scheme together against me,

as they plot to take my life.

14  But I trust in you, O Lord;

ⁱI say, “You are my God.”
