Psalms 71:13-20

¹³Let them be ashamed, let them be consumed, that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered with reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.

¹⁴But as for me, I will hope continually, and will praise thee yet more and more.

¹⁵My mouth shall declare thy righteousness, and thy salvation all the day: for I know not the numbers thereof.

¹⁶I will go in the might of the Lord Jehovah; I will recall thy righteousness, thine alone.

¹⁷O God, thou hast taught me from my youth, and hitherto have I proclaimed thy marvellous works:

¹⁸Now also, when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not, until I have proclaimed thine arm unto this generation, thy might to every one that is to come.

¹⁹And thy righteousness, O God, reacheth on high, thou who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee?

²⁰Thou, who hast shewn us many and sore troubles, wilt revive us again, and wilt bring us up again from the depths of the earth;
