Psalms 71:1-9 God's Word Translation (GW)

1. I have taken refuge in you, O Lord.Never let me be put to shame.

2. Rescue me and free me because of your righteousness.Turn your ear toward me, and save me.

3. Be a rock on which I may live,a place where I may always go.You gave the order to save me!Indeed, you are my rock and my fortress.

4. My God, free me from the hands of a wicked person,from the grasp of one who is cruel and unjust.

5. You are my hope, O Almighty Lord.You have been my confidence ever since I was young.

6. I depended on you before I was born.You took me from my mother’s womb.My songs of praise constantly speak about you.

7. I have become an example to many people,but you are my strong refuge.

8. My mouth is filled with your praise,with your glory all day long.

9. Do not reject me when I am oldor abandon me when I lose my strength.
