12 But you, O Lord, are (A)enthroned forever;
    you (B)are remembered throughout all generations.
13 You will (C)arise and have (D)pity on Zion;
    it is the time to favor her;
    (E)the appointed time has come.
14 For your servants hold her (F)stones dear
    and have pity on her dust.
15 Nations will (G)fear the name of the Lord,
    and all (H)the kings of the earth will fear your glory.
16 For the Lord (I)builds up Zion;
    he (J)appears in his glory;
17 he (K)regards the prayer of the destitute
    and does not despise their prayer.

18 Let this be (L)recorded for (M)a generation to come,
    so that (N)a people yet to be created may praise the Lord:
19 that he (O)looked down from his holy height;
    from heaven the Lord looked at the earth,
20 to hear (P)the groans of the prisoners,
    to set free (Q)those who were doomed to die,
21 that they may (R)declare in Zion the name of the Lord,
    and in Jerusalem his praise,
22 when (S)peoples gather together,
    and kingdoms, to worship the Lord.
