Psalm 71 — Psalms 71:7–13

I am as a wonder unto many;
But thou art my strong refuge.

My mouth shall be filled with thy praise,
And with thy honor all the day.

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

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

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

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

Let them be put to shame and consumed that are adversaries to my soul;
Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor that seek my hurt.
