Seite 174 - Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; And the heavens are the works of thine hands: They shall perish; but thou remainest; And they all shall wax old as doth a garment; And as a vesture shall thou fold them up, And they shall be changed: But thou art the same, And thy years shall not fail.
