Psalms 71:18-24
18
Even when I am old and gray,
do not forsake me, O God,
till I declare your power to the next generation,
your might to all who are to come.
19
Your righteousness reaches to the skies, O God,
you who have done great things.
Who, O God, is like you?
20
Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter,
you will restore my life again;
from the depths of the earth
you will again bring me up.
21
You will increase my honor
and comfort me once again.
22
I will praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praise to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
23
My lips will shout for joy
when I sing praise to you—
I, whom you have redeemed.
24
My tongue will tell of your righteous acts
all day long,
for those who wanted to harm me
have been put to shame and confusion.
