17O my Strength, I will sing praises to you, for you, O God, are my fortress, the God who shows me steadfast love.
In a rather somber-sounding Psalm, the last verse contains a shout for joy: “My Strength, of you I want to sing” (confessing the Lord, as in Psalm 59:9); to you I sing my song; you are my fortress; you are the God who shows me steadfast love.
17 O my Strength, I will sing praises to you, for you, O God, are my fortress, the God who shows me steadfast love.
