Psalms 71:1-7

Leeser(i) 1 In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be made ashamed. 2 In thy righteousness do thou deliver me and release me: incline thy ear unto me, and save me. 3 Be thou unto me a rocky habitation, whereunto I may continually resort, which thou hast ordained to save me; for my rock and my strong-hold art thou. 4 O my God, release me out of the hand of the wicked, out of the grasp of the unrighteous and violent man. 5 For thou art my hope, O Lord Eternal: thou art my trust from my youth. 6 By thee have I been supported from my birth: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s womb: of thee is my praise continually. 7 As a wonderful token have I been unto many; but thou art my strong refuge.
