Psalms 71:9-17 English Revised Version (ERV)

9. Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.

10. For mine enemies speak concerning me; and they that watch for my soul take counsel together,

11. Saying, God hath forsaken him: pursue and take him; for there is none to deliver.

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

13. Let them be ashamed and consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

14. But I will hope continually, and will praise thee yet more and more.

15. My mouth shall tell of thy righteousness, and of thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers thereof.

16. I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

17. O God, thou hast taught me from my youth; and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.
