Context

71:16 I will come and tell about 1  the mighty acts of the sovereign Lord.

I will proclaim your justice – yours alone.

71:17 O God, you have taught me since I was young,

and I am still declaring 2  your amazing deeds.

71:18 Even when I am old and gray, 3 

O God, do not abandon me,

until I tell the next generation about your strength,

and those coming after me about your power. 4 

1 tn Heb “I will come with.”

2 tn Heb “and until now I am declaring.”

3 tn Heb “and even unto old age and gray hair.”

4 tn Heb “until I declare your arm to a generation, to everyone who comes your power.” God’s “arm” here is an anthropomorphism that symbolizes his great strength.
