10. Thy wrath and indignationdid cause this grief and pain;For thou hast lift me up on high,and cast me down again.
11. My days are like unto a shade,which doth declining pass;And I am dry'd and withered,ev'n like unto the grass.
12. But thou, Lord, everlasting art,and thy remembrance shallContinually endure,and be to generations all.
13. Thou shalt arise, and mercy haveupon thy Sion yet;The time to favour her is come,the time that thou hast set.
14. For in her rubbish and her stonesthy servants pleasure take;Yea, they the very dust thereofdo favour for her sake.
15. So shall the heathen people fearthe Lord's most holy name;And all the kings on earth shall dreadthy glory and thy fame.
16. When Sion by the mighty Lordbuilt up again shall be,In glory then and majestyto men appear shall he.
17. The prayer of the destitutehe surely will regard;Their prayer will he not despise,by him it shall be heard.
18. For generations yet to comethis shall be on record:So shall the people that shall becreated praise the Lord.
19. He from his sanctuary's heighthath downward cast his eye;And from his glorious throne in heav'nthe Lord the earth did spy;
20. That of the mournful prisonerthe groanings he might hear,To set them free that unto deathby men appointed are:
21. That they in Sion may declarethe Lord's most holy name,And publish in Jerusalemthe praises of the same;
22. When as the people gather shallin troops with one accord,When kingdoms shall assembled beto serve the highest Lord.
