But Thou, O Lord, endurest forever: and Thy memorial for all generations. Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come. For the stones thereof have pleased Thy servants: and they shall have pity on the earth thereof. And the Gentiles shall fear Thy name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth Thy glory. For the Lord hath built up Sion: and He shall be seen in His glory. He hath had regard to the prayer of the humble: and He hath not despised their petition. Let these things be written unto another generation: and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord. Because He has looked forth from His high sanctuary: from heaven the Lord hath looked upon the earth. That He might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: that He might release the children of the slain. That they might declare the name of the Lord in Sion, and His praise in Jerusalem. When the people assemble together, and the kings, to serve the Lord. He answered Him in the way of his strength: Declare unto me the fewness of my days. Call me not away in the midst of my days: Thy years are unto generation and generation. In the beginning, O Lord, Thou foundest the earth; and the heavens are the works of Thy hands. They shall perish, but Thou remainest: and all of them shall grow old like a garment: And as a vesture Thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed. But Thou art always the self‐same, and Thy years shall not fail. The children of Thy servants shall continue: and their seed shall be directed forever. Glory be to the Father, etc. Psalm CXXIX. _De profundis._ Out of the depths I have cried to Thee, O Lord: Lord, hear my voice. Let Thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. If Thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand? For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness; and by reason of Thy law I have waited for Thee, O Lord! My soul hath relied on His word: my soul hath hoped in the Lord. From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord. Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with Him plentiful redemption. And He shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. Glory be to the Father, etc. Psalm CXLII. _Domine exaudi._ Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in Thy truth: hear me in Thy justice. And enter not into judgment with Thy servant: for in Thy sight no man living shall be justified. For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in the darkness as those that have been dead of old: and my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled. I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all Thy works: I meditated upon the works of Thy hands. I stretched forth my hands to Thee: my soul is as earth without water unto Thee. Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away.
