⁶ Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
    look at the earth beneath;
the heavens will vanish like smoke,^(A)
    the earth will wear out like a garment^(B)
    and its inhabitants die like flies.
But my salvation^(C) will last forever,^(D)
    my righteousness will never fail.^(E)

²⁷ But you remain the same,^(A)
    and your years will never end.^(B)
28 The children of your servants^(C) will live in your presence;
    their descendants^(D) will be established before you.”
