Psalms 71:3

Protection and safetySalvationStrength and help in weakness

1 In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame.

2 In Your justice, rescue and deliver me; incline Your ear and save me.

Be my rock of refuge, where I can always go. Give the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress.

4 Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and ruthless.

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