14 You will arise and have pity on Zion; ♦︎

surely the time has come.
15 For your servants love her very stones ♦︎
and feel compassion for her dust.
16 Then shall the nations fear your name, O Lord, ♦︎
and all the kings of the earth your glory,
17 When the Lord has built up Zion ♦︎
and shown himself in glory;
18 When he has turned to the prayer of the destitute ♦︎
and has not despised their plea.
19 This shall be written for those that come after, ♦︎
and a people yet unborn shall praise the Lord.
20 For he has looked down from his holy height; ♦︎
from the heavens he beheld the earth,
21 That he might hear the sighings of the prisoner ♦︎
and set free those condemned to die;
