Psalms 71:5-9

⁵For you, Lord God, are my hope. You are the one I have trusted since I was young.

⁶I have depended on you since birth; you have taken care of me from my mother's womb. That's why I'm always praising you!

⁷My life has been like a miracle to many people, for you have been my powerful protector.

⁸All day long I am full of praise for you, telling how wonderful you are!

⁹Don't reject me now I'm getting old. When my strength is gone, please don't abandon me.
