9. Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength fails.
10. For my enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,
11. Saying, God has forsaken him: persecute and take him; for there is none to deliver him.
12. O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
13. Let them be confounded and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonor that seek my hurt.
14. But I will hope continually, and will yet praise you more and more.
15. My mouth shall show forth your righteousness and your salvation all the day; for I know not the limits thereof.
16. I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours only.
17. O God, you have taught me from my youth: and to this day have I declared your wondrous works.
