Psalms 71:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 71:17

15 My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness
And Your salvation all the day,
For I do not know their limits.

16 I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD;
I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.

17 O God, You have taught me from my ^ayouth;
And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.

18 Now also ^awhen I am old and grayheaded,
O God, do not forsake me,
Until I declare Your strength to this generation,
Your power to everyone who is to come.

19 Also ^aYour righteousness, O God, is very high,
You who have done great things;
^bO God, who is like You?

20 ^aYou, who have shown me great and severe troubles,
^bShall revive me again,
And bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

21 You shall increase my greatness,
And comfort me on every side.

22 Also ^awith the lute I will praise You—
And Your faithfulness, O my God!
To You I will sing with the harp,
O ^bHoly One of Israel.

23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You,
And ^amy soul, which You have redeemed.

24 My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long;
For they are confounded,
For they are brought to shame
Who seek my hurt.
