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!
25 In the beginning, Lord,you laid the earth's foundationand created the heavens.
26 They will all disappearand wear out like clothes.You change them,as you would a coat,but you last for ever.
