16. I come because of the mighty deeds of Adonai my Lord. I will remember Your righteousness —Yours alone.
17. God, You taught me from my youth, and I still keep declaring Your wonders.
18. So even until I am old and gray, O God, do not forsake me, till I tell of Your strong arm to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.
19. For Your righteousness, O God, reaches to high heaven. You have done great things— O God, who is like You?
20. You made me see many troubles and evils —You will revive me again— from the depths of the earth You will bring me up again.
21. You will increase my greatness, and comfort me once again.
22. So I will praise You with the harp for your truth, O my God. I will sing praises to You with the lyre O Holy One of Israel.
23. My lips will shout for joy —when I sing praises to You— and my soul, which You have redeemed.
24. Also my tongue will tell of Your righteousness all day. For those who seek my hurt have been put to shame and confusion.
