Psalms 102:13-28
-
13 Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
-
14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof.
-
15 So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
-
16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
-
17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
-
18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
-
19 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;
-
20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;
-
21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
-
22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
-
23 He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.
-
24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.
-
25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
-
26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:
-
27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
-
28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee.
