Mazmur 102:27-28

102:27 But you remain; ¹ 

your years do not come to an end.

102:28 The children of your servants will settle down here,

and their descendants ²  will live securely in your presence.” ³ 

[102:27]  ¹ tn Heb “you [are] he,” or “you [are] the one.” The statement may echo the Lord’s affirmation “I am he” in Isa 41:4; 43:10, 13; 46:10; 48:12. In each of these passages the affirmation emphasizes the fact that the Lord transcends time limitations, the very point being made in Ps 102:27.

[102:28]  ² tn Or “offspring”; Heb “seed.”

[102:28]  ³ tn Heb “before you will be established.”
