Psalms 71:1-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. In You, O Lord, I seek refuge;may I never be put to shame.

2. Deliver me in Your righteousness and help me escape;incline Your ear to me and save me.

3. Be my rock of refugeto enter continually;You have given commandment to saveme;for You are my rock and my stronghold.

4. Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked,out of the hand of the unjust and cruel man.

5. For You are my hope, O Lord God;You are my confidence from my youth.

6. On You I have supported myself from the womb;You took me out of my mother’s womb.My praise will continually be about You.

7. I am like a wondrous sign to many;You are my strong refuge.

8. My mouth will be filled with Your praiseand with Your glory all the day.
