αὐτοὶ�. Isaiah 34:4, &c.; 2 Peter 3:12; Revelation 21:1.

διαμένεις, “abidest through all times.” This, and not the future διαμενεῖς, is the right reading, for it is parallel to σὺ δὲ ὁ αὐτὸς εἶ. Διαμένειν means to abide through all changes.

ὡσεὶ περιβόλαιον. ὡς ἱμάτιον is a common Scripture metaphor. Isaiah 50:9, &c.
