9. O do not cast me off, when asold age doth overtake me;And when my strength decayed is,then do not thou forsake me.
10. For those that are mine enemiesagainst me speak with hate;And they together counsel takethat for my soul lay wait.
11. They said, God leaves him; him pursueand take: none will him save.
12. Be thou not far from me, my God:thy speedy help I crave.
13. Confound, consume them, that untomy soul are enemies:Cloth'd be they with reproach and shamethat do my hurt devise.
14. But I with expectationwill hope continually;And yet with praises more and moreI will thee magnify.
15. Thy justice and salvationmy mouth abroad shall show,Ev'n all the day; for I thereofthe numbers do not know.
