Psalms 71:1-4
11In you, O Lord, I have taken shelter! Never let me be humiliated!
2Vindicate me by rescuing me! Listen to me! Deliver me!
3Be my protector and refuge, a stronghold where I can be safe! For you are my high ridge and my stronghold.
4My God, rescue me from the power of the wicked, from the hand of the cruel oppressor!
Notes
- 1. Psalms 71:1 Psalm 71. The psalmist prays for divine intervention and expresses his confidence that God will protect and vindicate him. The first three verses are very similar to Ps 31:1-3a. ↩
