    so ·God [L God, your God,] has ·chosen [L anointed] you ·from among your friends [or above your peers; above anyone else];
    he has ·set you apart with much joy [L anointed you with the oil of joy/rejoicing; Ps. 45:6–7].”

    and your hands made the ·skies [heavens].
11 They will be destroyed, but you ·will remain [continue; C forever].
    They will all wear out like ·clothes [a garment].
