Context of Psalms 71:14
12O God, do not be far from me; O my God, come quickly to help me! 13Let those who attack my life be ashamed and consumed; Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor, who seek to injure me. But as for me, I will wait and hope continually, And will praise You yet more and more. 15My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness And of Your [deeds of] salvation all day long, For their number is more than I know. 16I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord God [and in His strength]; I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.
