that which wise men have told, and have not hidden from their fathers;
With us are both the gray-headed and aged, mightier than your father as to days.
I will show you; hear me; and what I have seen I will declare,
to them alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.
Do you know this from days of old, from the setting of man on earth,
For please ask of the former age, and prepare yourself to the search of their fathers,
And now when I am old and gray-headed, O God, do not leave me; until I have declared Your strength to this generation, and Your power to everyone who is to come.
The living, the living, he shall praise You, as I do this day; the father shall make Your truth known to the sons.
