¹⁰ and, `Thou, at the beginning, Lord, the earth didst found, and a work of thy hands are the heavens;

²⁵ Beforetime the earth Thou didst found, And the work of Thy hands `are' the heavens.

²⁶ They -- They perish, and Thou remainest, And all of them as a garment become old, As clothing Thou changest them, And they are changed.

²⁷ And Thou `art' the same, and Thine years are not finished.
