O.k, thank you, Issac, for your reply ! I understand. Is it possible that 
the translation problem concerning the Hebrew text is due to the SPR 
(recount) in connection with two Lameds in this verse?
Is it "to tell someone about something" ? I found no second occurance in the 
Hebrew Bible for SPR with this two prepositions.
Thank you again !
Yours

It appears to me possible that a yod fell off (or rather moved and
merged into the next word)
and that it should be זרעי  ZARIY, 'my seed'; with the essence of
the sentence being that the
praise and worship of ADONAY will never cease.

Otherwise the word ISRAEL, the AM NOLAD of the next verse, is missing
after ZERA.
