Psalms 102:13-22

13You will arise and have pity on Zion; it is the time to favor her; the appointed time has come.

14For your servants hold her stones dear and have pity on her dust.

15Nations will fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth will fear your glory.

16For the Lord builds up Zion; he appears in his glory;

17he regards the prayer of the destitute and does not despise their prayer.

18Let this be recorded for a generation to come, so that a people yet to be created may praise the Lord:

19that he looked down from his holy height; from heaven the Lord looked at the earth,

20to hear the groans of the prisoners, to set free those who were doomed to die,

21that they may declare in Zion the name of the Lord, and in Jerusalem his praise,

22when peoples gather together, and kingdoms, to worship the Lord.
