Are thy days as the days of man, or thy years as man's years,
that thou dost seek out my iniquity and search for my sin,
Behold, God is great, and we know him not; the number of his years is unsearchable.
But thou, O Lord, art enthroned for ever; thy name endures to all generations.
The children of thy servants shall dwell secure; their posterity shall be established before thee.
like a mantle thou wilt roll them up, and they will be changed. But thou are the same, and thy years will never end.”
But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
