Psalms 71:13-20

¹³Men that backbite my soul, be shamed, and fail they; and be they covered with reproof and shame, that seek evils to me.

¹⁴But I shall hope evermore; and I shall add to ever over all thy praising.

¹⁵My mouth shall tell thy rightful-ness or rightwiseness; all day thine health. For I knew not by literature, that is, by man’s teaching, but by God’s revelation,

¹⁶I shall enter into the powers of the Lord; Lord, I shall bethink on thy rightfulness or rightwiseness alone.

¹⁷God, thou hast taught me from my youth, and till to now; I shall tell out thy marvels.

¹⁸And till into eld age /into oldness, and the last age; God, forsake thou not me. Till I tell thine arm, or power, to each generation that shall come.

¹⁹Till I tell of thy might, and thy rightfulness or rightwiseness, God, till into the highest great deeds which thou hast done; God, who is like thee?

²⁰How great tribulations, many and evil, hast thou showed to me; and thou converted, hast quickened me, and hast again-brought me again from the depths of earth.
