Psalms 71:1-8 New English Translation (NET)

1. In you, O Lord, I have taken shelter!Never let me be humiliated!

2. Vindicate me by rescuing me!Listen to me! Deliver me!

3. Be my protector and refuge,a stronghold where I can be safe!For you are my high ridge and my stronghold.

4. My God, rescue me from the power of the wicked,from the hand of the cruel oppressor!

5. For you give me confidence, O Lord;O Lord, I have trusted in you since I was young.

6. I have leaned on you since birth;you pulled me from my mother’s womb.I praise you continually.

7. Many are appalled when they see me,but you are my secure shelter.

8. I praise you constantlyand speak of your splendor all day long.
