Psalms 71:9-16

Psalms 71:9-16 AMP

Do not cast me off nor send me away in the time of old age; Do not abandon me when my strength fails and I am weak. For my enemies have spoken against me; Those who watch for my life have consulted together, Saying, “God has abandoned him; Pursue and seize him, for there is no one to rescue him.” ¶O God, do not be far from me; O my God, come quickly to help me! Let those who attack my life be ashamed and consumed; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek to injure me. But as for me, I will wait and hope continually, And will praise You yet more and more. My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And of Your [deeds of] salvation all day long, For their number is more than I know. I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD [and in His strength]; I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.
