16. I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, Sovereign Lord;I will proclaim your righteous deeds, yours alone.
17. Since my youth, God, you have taught me,and to this day I declare your marvellous deeds.
18. Even when I am old and grey,do not forsake me, my God,till I declare your power to the next generation,your mighty acts to all who are to come.
19. Your righteousness, God, reaches to the heavens,you who have done great things.Who is like you, God?
20. Though you have made me see troubles,many and bitter,you will restore my life again;from the depths of the earthyou will again bring me up.
21. You will increase my honourand comfort me once more.
22. I will praise you with the harpfor your faithfulness, my God;I will sing praise to you with the lyre,Holy One of Israel.
23. My lips will shout for joywhen I sing praise to you –I whom you have delivered.
24. My tongue will tell of your righteous actsall day long,for those who wanted to harm mehave been put to shame and confusion.
