May the accusers of my soul be ashamed and consumed; may those who seek my harm be covered with scorn and disgrace.

Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, O God, until I proclaim Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come.

19 And righteousness your O God [is] to [the] height who you have done great [things] O God who? [is] like you.

Your righteousness reaches to the heavens, O God, You who have done great things. Who, O God, is like You?
