16I will give news of the great acts of the Lord God; my words will be of your righteousness, and of yours only.
17O God, you have been my teacher from the time when I was young; and I have been talking of your works of wonder even till now.
18Now when I am old and grey-headed, O God, give me not up; till I have made clear your strength to this generation, and your power to all those to come.
19Your righteousness, O God, is very high; you have done great things; O God, who is like you?
20You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.
21You will make me greater than before, and give me comfort on every side.
22I will give praise to you with instruments of music, O my God, for you are true; I will make songs to you with music, O Holy One of Israel.
