Psalms 102:13-28

CLV(i) 13 You Yourself shall rise; You shall have compassion on Zion, For it is the era to be gracious to her, Since the appointed time has come." 14 For Your servants hold her stones dear, And they show favor to her soil." 15 The nations shall fear the Name of Yahweh, And all the kings of the earth Your glory." 16 For Yahweh will build up Zion; He will appear in His glory. 17 He will turn toward the prayer of the forlorn, And He will not despise their prayer." 18 Let this be written for a later generation, When a people yet being created shall praise Yah." 19 For He will gaze from His sanctuary on high; Yahweh from the heavens to the earth will look down, 20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner, To unloose the sons of death, 21 So that the Name of Yahweh may be recounted in Zion And His praise in Jerusalem, 22 When the peoples are convened together And the kingdoms come to serve Yahweh. 23 On the way He has humbled my vigor; He has shortened my days. 24 I am saying, O my El, do not take me away at the half of my days! Your years continue through generation after generations." 25 Beforetime You founded the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands." 26 They shall perish, yet You shall stand. All of them shall decay like a cloak; You shall change them like clothing, and they shall pass by." 27 Yet You remain the same, And Your years shall not come to end." 28 The sons of Your servants, they shall tabernacle in serenity, And their seed shall be established before You."
