17 Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, (A)and (B)for the Lord’s sake [a]cause Your face to shine on [b]Your sanctuary, (C)which is desolate. 18 (D)O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes (E)and see our desolations, and the city (F)which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies. 19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”
