Psalm 71:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
71 He prayeth in faith, established by the word of promise, 5 And confirmed by the work of God from his youth. 10 He complaineth of the cruelty of his enemies, 17 And desireth God to continue his graces toward him, 22 Promising to be mindful and thankful for the same.
1 In (A)[a]thee, O Lord, I trust: let me never be ashamed.
2 Rescue me and deliver me in thy [b]righteousness: incline thine ear unto me and save me.
3 Be thou my strong rock, whereunto I may always resort: thou [c]hast given commandment to save me: for thou art my rock, and my fortress.
