Psalm 102:23-25

New International Reader's Version

²³ When I was still young, he took away my strength.
    He wasn’t going to let me live much longer.
²⁴ So I said, “My God, don’t let me die in the middle of my life.
    You will live for all time to come.
²⁵ In the beginning you made the earth secure.
    You placed it on its foundations.
    Your hands created the heavens.
