Psalms 71:18-24

¹⁸Indeed, even when I am old and gray-headed, God, do not forsake me, as I have been declaring your strength to the next generation, your power to everyone who is to come.

¹⁹Your righteousness also, God, is very high; you who have done great things, God, who is like you?

²⁰You who made me see many troubles will revive us again and will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

²¹May you increase my honor; turn again and comfort me.

²²I will also give thanks to you with the harp for your trustworthiness, my God; to you I will sing praises with the harp, Holy One of Israel.

²³My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to you— even my soul, which you have redeemed.

²⁴My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long; for they have been put to shame and are confused, those who sought my hurt.
