[verse 13] Thou wilt arise, and mercy thou to Sion wilt extend: The time of mercy, now the time foreset is come to end. [verse 14] For even in the stones thereof thy servants do delight: And on the dust thereof they have compassion in their sprite.
[verse 15] Then shall the heathen people fear the Lords most holy Name: And all the kings on earth shall dread thy glory and thy fame. [verse 16] Then when the Lord the mighty God again shall Sion rear: And then when he most nobly in his glory shall appear.
[verse 17] To prayer of the desolate when he himself shall bend: When he shall not disdain unto their prayers to attend. [verse 18] This shall be written for the age that after shall succeed: The people yet uncreated the Lords renown shall spread.
[verse 19] For he from his high sanctuary hath looked down below: And out of heaven hath the Lord beheld the earth also. [verse 20] That of the mourning captive he might hear the woful crie: And that he might deliver those that damned are to die.
[verse 21] That they in Sion may declare the Lords most holy Name: And in Jerusalem set forth the praises of the same: [verse 22] Then when the people of the land and kingdoms with accord Shall be assembled for to do their service to the Lord.
