In thy righteousness stands emphatically at the beginning of the sentence in the Heb. The righteousness of God is a thought upon which this Psalmist loves to dwell (Psalms 71:2; Psalms 71:15-16; Psalms 71:19; Psalms 71:24). In virtue of that unchanging rectitude which is an inalienable attribute of Deity, He cannot desert His servant. He must be true to His promise.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text reads, "In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me." The Septuagint aligns closely with this text, matching all seven words, though it presents them in a different order and structure typical of Greek syntax. The Dead Sea Scrolls (4Q83) also reflect a similar sentiment, with most words present, but one word is supplied by an editor. Overall, the Masoretic Text, Septuagint, and Dead Sea Scrolls agree in meaning and intent, with minor variations in wording and structure.
