Psalms 103:18
16 when the wind passes over, it vanishes, and its place remembers it no more.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting the loving devotion of the LORD extends to those who fear Him, and His righteousness to their children’s children—
to those who keep His covenant and remember to obey His precepts.
19 The LORD has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all.
20 Bless the LORD, all His angels mighty in strength who carry out His word, who hearken to the voice of His command.
