Psalms [Praises] 71:2-8

²Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.

³Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the enjoin to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.

⁴Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

⁵For you are my hope, Lord Adonai ; my confidence from my youth.

⁶I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother’s womb. I will always tehilah ·praise song· you.

⁷I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.

⁸My mouth shall be filled with your tehilah ·praise song·, with your honor all the day.
