9 Do not cast me off in the time of old age. Do not abandon me when my strength will fail.
10 For my enemies have spoken against me. And those who watched for my soul have taken counsel as one,
11 saying: "God has abandoned him. Pursue and overtake him. For there is no one to rescue him."
12 O God, do not be far from me. O my God, provide for my assistance.
13 May they be confounded, and may they fail, who drag down my soul. Let them be covered with confusion and shame, who seek evils for me.
14 But I will always have hope. And I will add more to all your praise.
15 My mouth will announce your justice, your salvation all day long. For I have not known letters.
