7. And now, Lord, what shall I wait for? My hope is in thee.
8. Deliver me from all my rebellions; do not make me the reproach of the foolish.
9. I was dumb, I opened not my mouth because thou didst it.
10. Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11. When thou with chastening dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his greatness to consume away like a moth; surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12. Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
13. O spare me, that I may recover strength before I go from here and be no more.
