1 In thee, O Jehovah, do I take refuge: Let me never be put to shame.
         
                                
                        2 Deliver me in thy righteousness, and rescue me: Bow down thine ear unto me, and save me.
         
                                
                        3 Be thou to me a rock of habitation, whereunto I may       continually resort: Thou hast given commandment to save me; For thou art my rock and my fortress.
         
                                
                        4 Rescue me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
         
                                
                        5 For thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah: [Thou art] my trust from my youth.
         
                                
                        6 By thee have I been holden up from the womb; Thou art he that took me out of my mother`s bowels: My praise shall be continually of thee.
         
                                
                        7 I am as a wonder unto many; But thou art my strong refuge.
