23. He has broken my strength along the way; he has cut short my days.
24. I say, “My God, do not carry me off from my life in the middle of my days.” Your years continue throughout all generations.
25. Long ago you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.
26. They will perish, but you will endure. And like a garment they will all wear out, you will replace them like clothing, and they will be set aside.
27. But you are the same, and your years do not end.
