Psalms 71:1-7

Brenton(i) 1 (70:1) By David, a Psalm sung by the sons of Jonadab, and the first that were taken captive. O Lord, I have hoped in thee: let me never be put to shame. 2 (70:2) In thy righteousness deliver me and rescue me: incline thine ear to me, and save me. 3 (70:3) Be to me a protecting God, and a strong hold to save me: for thou art my fortress and my refuge. 4 (70:4) Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the sinner, from the hand of the transgressor and unjust man. 5 (70:5) For thou art my support, O Lord; O Lord, thou art my hope from my youth. 6 (70:6) On thee have I been stayed from the womb: from the belly of my mother thou art my protector: of thee is my praise continually. 7 (70:7) I am become as it were a wonder to many: but thou art my strong helper.
