7 Many people think of meas something evil.But you are my mighty protector,
8 and I praise and honour youall day long.
9 Don't throw me asidewhen I am old;don't desert mewhen my strength is gone.
10 My enemies are plottingbecause they want me dead.
11 They say, “Now we'll catch you!God has deserted you,and no one can save you.”
12 Come closer, God!Please hurry and help.
13 Embarrass and destroyall who want me dead;disgrace and confuseall who want to hurt me.
