15 My mouth shall tell of your righteousness
and salvation all the day long, ♦︎
for I know no end of the telling.
16 I will begin with the mighty works of the Lord God; ♦︎
I will recall your righteousness, yours alone.
17 O God, you have taught me since I was young, ♦︎
and to this day I tell of your wonderful works.
18 Forsake me not, O God,
when I am old and grey-headed, ♦︎
till I make known your deeds to the next generation
and your power to all that are to come.
19 Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the heavens; ♦︎
in the great things you have done, who is like you, O God?
20 What troubles and adversities you have shown me, ♦︎
and yet you will turn and refresh me
and bring me from the deep of the earth again.
21 Increase my honour; ♦︎
turn again and comfort me.
22 Therefore will I praise you upon the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God; ♦︎
I will sing to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips will sing out as I play to you, ♦︎
and so will my soul, which you have redeemed.
24 My tongue also will tell of your righteousness all the day long, ♦︎
for they shall be shamed and disgraced
who sought to do me evil.
