New Testament

Psalms 71:15-24 New English Translation (NET)

15. I will tell about your justice,and all day long proclaim your salvation,though I cannot fathom its full extent.

16. I will come and tell about the mighty acts of the sovereign Lord.I will proclaim your justice – yours alone.

17. O God, you have taught me since I was young,and I am still declaring your amazing deeds.

18. Even when I am old and gray,O God, do not abandon me,until I tell the next generation about your strength,and those coming after me about your power.

19. Your justice, O God, extends to the skies above;you have done great things.O God, who can compare to you?

20. Though you have allowed me to experience much trouble and distress,revive me once again!Bring me up once again from the depths of the earth!

21. Raise me to a position of great honor!Turn and comfort me!

22. I will express my thanks to you with a stringed instrument,praising your faithfulness, O my God!I will sing praises to you accompanied by a harp,O Holy One of Israel!

23. My lips will shout for joy! Yes, I will sing your praises!I will praise you when you rescue me!

24. All day long my tongue will also tell about your justice,for those who want to harm me will be embarrassed and ashamed.
