Psalm 71:5-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)

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.

8. My mouth shall be filled with Your praise and with Your honor all the day.

9. Cast me not off nor send me away in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength is spent and my powers fail.

10. For my enemies talk against me; those who watch for my life consult together,

11. Saying, God has forsaken him; pursue and persecute and take him, for there is none to deliver him.

12. O God, be not far from me! O my God, make haste to help me!
