Psalms 102:12-28

12But You, O LordH3068, 1 2abideH3427 foreverH5769, And Your 3 4nameH2143 to allH1755 generationsH1755.13You will 5ariseH6965 and haveH7355 6compassionH7355 on ZionH6726; For 7it is timeH6256 to be graciousH2603 to her, For the 8appointedH4150 timeH4150 has comeH935.14SurelyH3588 Your servantsH5650 9findH7521 pleasureH7521 in her stonesH68 And feelH2603 pityH2603 for her dustH6083.15 10So the 11 12nationsH1471 will fearH3372 the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 And 13allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the earthH776 Your gloryH3519.16For the LordH3068 has 14builtH1129 up ZionH6726; He has 15appearedH7200 in His gloryH3519.17He has 16regardedH6437 the prayerH8605 of the 17destituteH6199 And has not despisedH959 their prayerH8605.

18 18ThisH2088 will be 19writtenH3789 for the 20generationH1755 to comeH314, 21That 22a peopleH5971 yet to be createdH1254 23may praiseH1984 24the LordH3050.19For He 25lookedH8259 downH8259 from His holyH6944 heightH4791; 26From heavenH8064 the LordH3068 gazedH5027 27upon the earthH776,20To hearH8085 the 28groaningH603 of the prisonerH615, To 29setH6605 freeH6605 30thoseH1121 whoH1121 were doomedH1121 to deathH8546,21That men may 31tellH5608 of the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 in ZionH6726 And His praiseH8416 in JerusalemH3389,22When 32the peoplesH5971 are gatheredH6908 togetherH3164, And the kingdomsH4467, to serveH5647 the LordH3068.

23He has weakenedH6031 my strengthH3581 in the wayH1870; He has 33shortenedH7114 my daysH3117.24I sayH559, “O my GodH410, 34do not takeH5927 me awayH5927 in the 35midstH2677 of my daysH3117, Your 36yearsH8141 are throughout allH1755 generationsH1755.25Of oldH6440 You 37foundedH3245 the earthH776, And the 38heavensH8064 are the workH4639 of Your handsH3027.26 39Even they will 40perishH6, but You endureH5975; And allH3605 of them will wearH1086 out like a garmentH899; Like clothingH3830 You will changeH2498 them and they will be changedH2498.27But You are 41 42the sameH1931, And Your yearsH8141 will not comeH8552 to an endH8552.28The 43childrenH1121 of Your servantsH5650 will continueH7931, And their 44 45descendantsH2233 will be establishedH3559 beforeH6440 You.”
