21. That he might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: that he might release the children of the slain:
22. That they may declare the name of the Lord in Sion: and his praise in Jerusalem;
23. When the people assemble together, and kings, to serve the Lord.
24. He answered him in the way of his strength: Declare unto me the fewness of my days.
25. Call me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are unto generation and generation.
26. In the beginning, O Lord, thou foundedst the earth: end the heavens are the works of thy hands.
27. They shall perish but thou remainest: and all of them shall grow old like a garment: And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed.
28. But thou art always the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.
29. The children of thy servants shall continue: and their seed shall be directed for ever.
