22 So I will praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; I will sing praise to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.

24 My tongue will indeed proclaim Your righteousness all day long, for those who seek my harm are disgraced and confounded. And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long, for they have been put to shame and disappointed who sought to do me hurt. My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt. My tongue also will tell of Your righteousness all day long; For they are put to shame, for they are humiliated who seek my harm. My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long, for those who wanted to harm me have been put to shame and confusion.
