13 “Now therefore, our God,
We thank You
And praise Your glorious name.
14 But who am I, and who are my people,
That we should be able to offer so willingly as this?
For all things come from You,
And [a]of Your own we have given You.
15 For (A)we are [b]aliens and [c]pilgrims before You,
As were all our fathers;
(B)Our days on earth are as a shadow,
And without hope.
