24 I say, “My God, (A)do not take me away in the middle of my days,
Your (B)years are [a]throughout all generations.
25 In time of old You (C)founded the earth,
And the (D)heavens are the work of Your hands.
26 [b]Even they will (E)perish, but You endure;
All of them will wear out like a garment;
Like clothing You will change them and they will pass away.

25 In the beginning(B) you laid the foundations of the earth,
    and the heavens(C) are the work of your hands.(D)
26 They will perish,(E) but you remain;
    they will all wear out like a garment.
Like clothing you will change them
    and they will be discarded.
