Psalms 71:7-12 New English Translation (NET)

7. Many are appalled when they see me,but you are my secure shelter.

8. I praise you constantlyand speak of your splendor all day long.

9. Do not reject me in my old age!When my strength fails, do not abandon me!

10. For my enemies talk about me;those waiting for a chance to kill me plot my demise.

11. They say, “God has abandoned him.Run and seize him, for there is no one who will rescue him!”

12. O God, do not remain far away from me!My God, hurry and help me!
