9. Do not cast me off in the time of old age;Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
10. For my enemies speak against me;And those who lie in wait for my life take counsel together,
11. Saying, “God has forsaken him;Pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him.”
12. O God, do not be far from me;O my God, make haste to help me!
13. Let them be confounded and consumedWho are adversaries of my life;Let them be covered with reproach and dishonorWho seek my hurt.
14. But I will hope continually,And will praise You yet more and more.
15. My mouth shall tell of Your righteousnessAnd Your salvation all the day,For I do not know their limits.
16. I will go in the strength of the Lord God;I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.
17. O God, You have taught me from my youth;And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.
18. Now also when I am old and grayheaded,O God, do not forsake me,Until I declare Your strength to this generation,Your power to everyone who is to come.
19. Also Your righteousness, O God, is very high,You who have done great things;O God, who is like You?
