God, do not be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.

13 May they be ashamed may they come to an end [the] accusers of self my may they cover themselves reproach and ignominy [those who] seek harm my.

Let my accusers be put to shame and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.

God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.

18 And also until old age - and grey hair O God may not you forsake me until I will declare strength your to a generation to every [one who] he will come might your.

Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, do not forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.

19 And righteousness your O God [is] to [the] height who you have done great [things] O God who? [is] like you.

Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?

20 Who (you have made see me *Q(K)*) troubles many and calamities you will return (you will preserve alive me *Q(K)*) and from [the] depths of the earth you will return you will bring up me.
