17God, Thou hast taught me from my youth, And hitherto I declare Thy wonders.
18And also unto old age and grey hairs, O God, forsake me not, Till I declare Thy strength to a generation, To every one that cometh Thy might.
19And Thy righteousness, O God, [is] unto the heights, Because Thou hast done great things, O God, who [is] like Thee?
20Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou turnest back -- Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the earth, Thou turnest back -- Thou bringest me up.
21Thou dost increase my greatness, And Thou surroundest -- Thou comfortest me,
22I also thank Thee with a vessel of psaltery, Thy truth, O my God, I sing to Thee with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,
23My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to Thee, And my soul that Thou hast redeemed,
