New King James Version
16 “O Lord, (A)according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, (B)Your holy mountain; because for our sins, (C)and for the iniquities of our fathers, (D)Jerusalem and Your people (E)are a reproach to all those around us. 17 Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, (F)and (G)for the Lord’s sake [a]cause Your face to shine on [b]Your sanctuary, (H)which is desolate. 18 (I)O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes (J)and see our desolations, and the city (K)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.”
