24 So I said:

“Do not take me away, my God, in the midst of my days;

your years go on through all generations.

24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days:

Thy years are throughout all generations.

24 But I cried to him, “O my God, who lives forever,

don’t take my life while I am so young!

24 I said, “O my God,

Do not take me away in the midst of my days;

Your years are throughout all generations.

24 So I said, “My God, do not take me in the middle of my life.

Your years go on and on.

24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days:

Thy years are throughout all generations.

24 I said, My •God, take me not away in the midst of my days! …Thy years are from generation to generation.

24 I said, “My God, don’t take me now in the middle of my life. 

Your years ⸤continue on⸥ throughout every generation. 

24 I say: “My God, do not take me

in the middle of my life!

Your years continue through all generations.

24 “O my God,” I say, “do not take me away

at the midpoint of my life,

you whose years endure

throughout all generations.”

24 I say, “My God, do not carry me off

from my life in the middle of my days.”

Your years continue throughout all generations.

24 So I said, “My God, don’t let me die in the middle of my life.

You will live for all time to come.

24 I say, “O my God, do not take me away in the midst of my days,

Your years are throughout all generations.
