New Testament

Psalms 71:5-14 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

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

6. By You I have been sustained from my birth; You are He who took me from my mother's womb; My praise is continually of You.

7. I have become a marvel to many, For You are my strong refuge.

8. My mouth is filled with Your praise And with Your glory all day long.

9. Do not cast me off in the time of old age; Do not forsake me when my strength fails.

10. For my enemies have spoken against me; And those who watch for my life have consulted together,

11. Saying, "God has forsaken him; Pursue and seize him, for there is no one to deliver."

12. O God, do not be far from me; O my God, hasten to my help!

13. Let those who are adversaries of my soul be ashamed and consumed; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek to injure me.

14. But as for me, I will hope continually, And will praise You yet more and more.
