Mazmur 71:9

71:9 Do not reject me in my old age! ¹ 

When my strength fails, do not abandon me!

Mazmur 77:7

77:7 I asked, ²  “Will the Lord reject me forever?

Will he never again show me his favor?

Mazmur 94:14

94:14 Certainly ³  the Lord does not forsake his people;

[71:9]  ¹ tn Heb “do not cast me away at the time of old age.”

[77:7]  ² tn As in vv. 4 and 6a, the words of vv. 7-9 are understood as a quotation of what the psalmist said earlier. Therefore the words “I asked” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[94:14]  ³ tn Or “for.”

[94:14]  ⁴ tn Or “his inheritance.”
