Psalms 102:13

Compare all

11 My days are like a shadow that lengthens,
And I wither away like grass.

12 But You, O Lord, shall endure forever,
And the remembrance of Your name to all generations.

13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion;
For the time to favor her,
Yes, the set time, has come.

14 For Your servants take pleasure in her stones,
And show favor to her dust.

15 So the¹ nations shall ^afear the name of the Lord,
And all the kings of the earth Your glory.

16 For the Lord shall build up Zion;
^aHe shall appear in His glory.

17 ^aHe shall regard the prayer of the destitute,
And shall not despise their prayer.

18 This will be ^awritten for the generation to come,
That ^ba people yet to be created may praise the Lord.

19 For He ^alooked down from the height of His sanctuary;
From heaven the Lord viewed the earth,

20 ^aTo hear the groaning of the prisoner,
To release those appointed to death,
