Context of Psalms 102:27
25At the beginning You founded the earth; The heavens are the work of Your hands. 26Even they will perish, but You endure; Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. Like clothing You will change them and they shall be changed. But You remain the same, And Your years will never end. 28The children of Your servants will continue, And their descendants will be established before You.”
