9 Thou hast loved righteousness and hast hated lawlessness; therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with oil of gladness above thy companions. 10 And, *Thou* in the beginning, Lord, hast founded the earth, and works of thy hands are the heavens. 11 They shall perish, but *thou* continuest still; and they all shall grow old as a garment, 12 and as a covering shalt thou roll them up, and they shall be changed; but *thou* art the Same, and thy years shall not fail.
Thy throne, O God, for ever,
Thy sceptre uprightness,
The earth, O blest Creator,
And heavens Thy power express.
In time they all shall perish,
But Thou continuest still;
Thy fame no years diminish,
Thou who dost all things fill!
