Context of Psalms 71:5
3Be thou my strong habitation, where I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress. 4Deliver me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man. For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD: thou art my trust from my youth. 6By thee have I been sustained from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s womb: my praise shall be continually of thee. 7I am as a wonder to many; but thou art my strong refuge.
