[verse 19] Thy right'ousness, O God, exceeds in the most high degree: Thou hast performed wondrous deeds, who can compare with thee? [verse 20] Thou who hast shew'd me troubles sore, ev'n thou my life shalt save: And though I were intomb'd, restore and bring me from the grave. [verse 21] My greatness thou shalt much increase, my comforts shall abound: And with thy comforts and thy peace thou shalt inclose me round. [verse 22] I will instruct each warbling string to make thy praises known: Yea, O my God, thy truth I'le sing, O Israel's holy one. [verse 23] A multitude of joys shall throng about my lips to sit; While my glad soul breaths out a song to him that ransom'd it. [verse 24] My tongue shall also now proclaim thy justice all day long: For they are quell'd and brought to shame that seek to do me wrong.
