Context Summary
Psalm 71:14–24 concludes the psalm with reflection on the psalmist's life of worship. Liars and conspirators are trying to kill him (Psalm 71:9–13), but he is determined to trust in God's protection. Much of this trust is because of prior instances of danger, through which God brought the psalmist. Rather than despair, the psalmist looks ahead, expecting that he will be able to tell others about what the Lord has done for him. This will come with music and proclamations about God's greatness.

Chapter Summary
The psalmist—possibly David—repeats a prayer for rescue resembling the opening verses of psalm 31. After a lifetime of noticeable faithfulness, the psalmist is fully confident that God will provide a rescue from his troubles. Again, the psalmist asks God to be with him despite his old age. When the expected salvation is accomplished, the psalmist plans to continue to worship the Lord and invite others to do the same.
