Amplified Bible

Psalm 71:1-7 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. IN YOU, O Lord, do I put my trust and confidently take refuge; let me never be put to shame or confusion!

2. Deliver me in Your righteousness and cause me to escape; bow down Your ear to me and save me!

3. Be to me a rock of refuge in which to dwell, and a sheltering stronghold to which I may continually resort, which You have appointed to save me, for You are my Rock and my Fortress.

4. Rescue me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the grasp of the unrighteous and ruthless man.

5. For You are my hope; O Lord God, You are my trust from my youth and the source of my confidence.

6. Upon You have I leaned and relied from birth; You are He Who took me from my mother's womb and You have been my benefactor from that day. My praise is continually of You.

7. I am as a wonder and surprise to many, but You are my strong refuge.
