Charles Ellicott Commentary Psalms 71:19

"Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high; Thou who hast done great things, O God, who is like unto thee?" — Psalms 71:19 (ASV)

Very high. —Literally, to the height, that is, to the heavens, as in Psalms 36:5; Psalms 57:10. The clauses should be arranged, Your righteousness also, O God, to the height—You who do great things—God, who is like unto you? .
