23 I wish that my words were written down,
that they were recorded on a scroll
24 or were inscribed in stone forever
by an iron stylus and lead!
25 But I know that my Redeemer lives,[a](A)
and at the end he will stand on the dust.(B)
26 Even after my skin has been destroyed,[b]
yet I will see God in[c] my flesh.(C)
27 I will see him myself;
my eyes will look at him, and not as a stranger.[d]
My heart longs[e] within me.(D)
