Psalms 71:10-17

¹⁰For my foes whisper against me, they who watch me take counsel together;

¹¹“God has left him,” they say: “pursue and seize him, for he is helpless.”

¹²O God, be not far from me, haste, O my God, to my help.

¹³Put my foes to shame and dishonour, with insult and shame be they covered.

¹⁴But I will never stop hoping, and more and yet more will I praise you.

¹⁵All the day long shall my mouth tell your faithfulness and your salvation, though I know not how they may be counted.

¹⁶I will tell of the might of the Lord, and your faithfulness praise, you alone.

¹⁷You have taught me, O God, from my youth, and till now have I told of your wonders.
