9Cast me not off in the time of old age; when my strength is spent, forsake me not.
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 dishonor, 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.
