10. because of Your indignation and wrath;for You have picked me up and thrown me aside.
11. My days are like a lengthening shadow,and I wither away like grass.
12. But You, Lord, are enthroned forever; Your fame endures to all generations.
13. You will rise up and have compassion on Zion,for it is time to show favor to her —the appointed time has come.
14. For Your servants take delight in its stonesand favor its dust.
15. Then the nations will fear the name of Yahweh,and all the kings of the earth Your glory,
16. for the Lord will rebuild Zion;He will appear in His glory.
17. He will pay attention to the prayer of the destituteand will not despise their prayer.
18. This will be written for a later generation,and a newly created people will praise the Lord:
19. He looked down from His holy heights —the Lord gazed out from heaven to earth —
20. to hear a prisoner’s groaning,to set free those condemned to die,
21. so that they might declarethe name of Yahweh in Zionand His praise in Jerusalem,
