18 Future generations must alsopraise the Lord,so write this for them:
19 “From his holy temple,the Lord looked downat the earth.
20 He listened to the groansof prisoners,and he rescued everyonewho was doomed to die.”
21 All Jerusalem should praiseyou, our Lord,
22 when people from every nationmeet to worship you.
23 I should still be strong,but you, Lord, have madean old person of me.
24 You will live for ever!Years mean nothing to you.Don't cut my life in half!
