5 Sovereign Lord, I put my hope in you;I have trusted in you since I was young.
6 I have relied on you all my life;you have protected me since the day I was born.I will always praise you.
7 My life has been an example to many,because you have been my strong defender.
8 All day long I praise youand proclaim your glory.
9 Do not reject me now that I am old;do not abandon me now that I am feeble.
10 My enemies want to kill me;they talk and plot against me.
11 They say, “God has abandoned him;let's go after him and catch him;there is no one to rescue him.”
