1. Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place in all generations.
2. Before the mountains were brought forth, and thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from eternity to eternity thou art ·God
3. Thou makest mortal man to return to dust, and sayest, Return, children of men.
4. For a thousand years, in thy sight, are as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
