Are your days like the days of a mortal, or your years like the years of a mortal,
that you must search out my iniquity, and inquire about my sin,
“Yes, God is great – beyond our knowledge! The number of his years is unsearchable.
But you, O Lord, rule forever, and your reputation endures.
The children of your servants will settle down here, and their descendants will live securely in your presence.”
and like a robe you will fold them up and like a garment they will be changed, but you are the same and your years will never run out.”
Now, dear friends, do not let this one thing escape your notice, that a single day is like a thousand years with the Lord and a thousand years are like a single day.
