New Testament

Psalm 71:17-24 American Standard Version (ASV)

17. O God, thou hast taught me from my youth; And hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.

18. Yea, even when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not, Until I have declared thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.

19. Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto thee?

20. Thou, who hast showed us many and sore troubles, Wilt quicken us again, And wilt bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

21. Increase thou my greatness, And turn again and comfort me.

22. I will also praise thee with the psaltery, Even thy truth, O my God: Unto thee will I sing praises with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.

23. My lips shall shout for joy when I sing praises unto thee; And my soul, which thou hast redeemed.

24. My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long; For they are put to shame, for they are confounded, that seek my hurt.
