Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!
God's righteousness is exalted to the highest place. His great deeds display a power that has no equal, so that none can be compared to Him. This declaration forms part of David's prayer and testimony when he was old.
That testimony looks back over a lifetime in which God had instructed him from his youth and had borne him through severe troubles. From that history it rises to praise God's greatness and to look to Him for renewed life and strength. It also turns outward in appeal for God's strength and power to be shown to the coming generation, making what God has done the reason to keep declaring His might even in old age.
