24  “O my God,” ^oI say, “take me not away

in the midst of my days—

^pyou whose years endure

throughout all generations!”

25  ^qOf old you laid the foundation of the earth,

and ^rthe heavens are the work of your hands.

26  ^sThey will perish, but ^tyou will remain;

they will all wear out like a garment.

You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away,

27  but ^uyou are the same, and your years have no end.

28  ^vThe children of your servants ^wshall dwell secure;

^xtheir offspring shall be established before you.

28  ^vThe children of your servants ^wshall dwell secure;

^xtheir offspring shall be established before you.

28  ^vThe children of your servants ^wshall dwell secure;

^xtheir offspring shall be established before you.

2  ^bDo not hide your face from me

in ^cthe day of my distress!

^dIncline your ear to me;

^eanswer me speedily ^fin the day when I call!

28  ^vThe children of your servants ^wshall dwell secure;

^xtheir offspring shall be established before you.

28  ^vThe children of your servants ^wshall dwell secure;

^xtheir offspring shall be established before you.

28  ^vThe children of your servants ^wshall dwell secure;

^xtheir offspring shall be established before you.
