²⁵ In the beginning^(A) you laid the foundations of the earth,
    and the heavens^(B) are the work of your hands.^(C)
26 They will perish,^(D) but you remain;
    they will all wear out like a garment.
Like clothing you will change them
    and they will be discarded.
²⁷ But you remain the same,^(E)
    and your years will never end.^(F)

¹⁹ The earth is broken up,^(A)
    the earth is split asunder,^(B)
    the earth is violently shaken.

²⁰ The earth reels like a drunkard,^(A)
    it sways like a hut^(B) in the wind;
so heavy upon it is the guilt of its rebellion^(C)
    that it falls^(D)—never to rise again.^(E)

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)
