Psalms 102:27

25 ^aOf old You laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

26 ^aThey will perish, but You will¹ endure;
Yes, they will all grow old like a garment;
Like a cloak You will change them,
And they will be changed.

27 But ^aYou are the same,
And Your years will have no end.

28 ^aThe children of Your servants will continue,
And their descendants will be established before You.”

Psalms 102:27

But thou art the same - veattah Hu , but thou art He, that is, The Eternal; and, consequently, he who only has immortality.

Thy years shall have no end - lo yittammu , "they shall not be completed." Every thing has its revolution - its conception, growth, perfection, decay, dissolution, and death, or corruption. It may be said that regeneration restores all these substances; and so it does in a measure, but not without deterioration. The breed of animals, as well as vegetables, wears out; but God' s eternal round has no completion. I repeat it, - what is necessarily eternal is unchangeable and imperishable; all created beings are perishable and mutable, because not eternal. God alone is eternal; therefore God alone is imperishable and immutable.
