Psalms 71:16-24 English Revised Version (ERV)

16. I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.

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, which hast shewed us many and sore troubles, shalt quicken us again, and shalt 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 greatly rejoice 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 ashamed, for they are confounded, that seek my hurt.
