Psalm 70:2-9 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

2. Free me by your justice, and rescue me. Incline your ear to me, and save me.

3. Be a God of protection and a place of strength for me, so that you may accomplish my salvation. For you are my firmament and my refuge.

4. Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the sinner, and from the hand of the unjust and those who act against the law.

5. For you, O Lord, are my patience: my hope from my youth, O Lord.

6. In you, I have been confirmed from conception. From my mother's womb, you are my protector. In you, I will sing forever.

7. I have become to many as if I were a portent, but you are a strong helper.

8. Let my mouth be filled with praise, so that I may sing your glory, your greatness all day long.

9. Do not cast me off in the time of old age. Do not abandon me when my strength will fail.
