4 I was mindful of God, and I was delighted, and I was distressed, and my spirit fell away.
5 My eyes anticipated the vigils. I was disturbed, and I did not speak.
6 I considered the days of antiquity, and I held the years of eternity in my mind.
7 And I meditated in the night with my heart, and I was distressed, and I examined my spirit.
8 So then, will God reject for eternity? Will he not continue to allow himself to show favor?
9 Or, will he cut off his mercy in the end, from generation to generation?
10 And would God ever forget to be merciful? Or, would he, in his wrath, restrict his mercies?
