Psalms 71:5

⁷“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose confidence is in the LORD.

⁷Now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in you.

⁸¹My soul faints for your salvation. I hope in your word.

¹⁷God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.

¹⁷Don’t be a terror to me. You are my refuge in the day of evil.

⁴⁵Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin; but I come to you in the name of the LORD of Armies, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. ⁴⁶Today, the LORD will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you and take your head from off you. I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines today to the birds of the sky and to the wild animals of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, ⁴⁷and that all this assembly may know that the LORD doesn’t save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hand.”

¹⁶⁶I have hoped for your salvation, LORD. I have done your commandments.

⁹But you brought me out of the womb. You made me trust while at my mother’s breasts. ¹⁰I was thrown on you from my mother’s womb. You are my God since my mother bore me.

¹³LORD, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you will be disappointed. Those who depart from me will be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the spring of living waters.

¹³Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.
