“For inquire now of the former ¹  generation, and pay attention ²  to the findings ³  of their ancestors; ⁴ 

The Lord’s decisions stand forever; his plans abide throughout the ages. ¹

But you, O Lord, rule forever, ¹  and your reputation endures. ² 

This brought him a reward, an eternal gift. ¹ 

O Lord, your name endures, ¹  your reputation, O Lord, lasts. ²

He says to himself, ¹  “I will never ²  be upended, because I experience no calamity.” ³ 

Their grave becomes their permanent residence, their eternal dwelling place. ¹  They name their lands after themselves, ²

A well-written song ²  by Ethan the Ezrachite. I will sing continually ³  about the Lord’s faithful deeds; to future generations I will proclaim your faithfulness. ⁴

The Lord rules forever, your God, O Zion, throughout the generations to come! ¹  Praise the Lord!
