“O Lord, I will praise You;
Though You were angry with me,
Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
Psalm 102:13-28
New King James Version
13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion;
For the time to favor her,
Yes, the set time, has come.
14 For Your servants take pleasure in her stones,
And show favor to her dust.
15 So the [a]nations shall (A)fear the name of the Lord,
And all the kings of the earth Your glory.
16 For the Lord shall build up Zion;
(B)He shall appear in His glory.
17 (C)He shall regard the prayer of the destitute,
And shall not despise their prayer.
18 This will be (D)written for the generation to come,
That (E)a people yet to be created may praise the Lord.
19 For He (F)looked down from the height of His sanctuary;
From heaven the Lord viewed the earth,
20 (G)To hear the groaning of the prisoner,
To release those appointed to death,
21 To (H)declare the name of the Lord in Zion,
And His praise in Jerusalem,
22 (I)When the peoples are gathered together,
And the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
23 He weakened my strength in the way;
He (J)shortened my days.
24 (K)I said, “O my God,
Do not take me away in the midst of my days;
(L)Your years are throughout all generations.
25 (M)Of old You laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
26 (N)They will perish, but You will [b]endure;
Yes, they will all grow old like a garment;
Like a cloak You will change them,
And they will be changed.
27 But (O)You are the same,
And Your years will have no end.
28 (P)The children of Your servants will continue,
And their descendants will be established before You.”

Each one gave him a piece of silver and each a ring of gold.
12 Now the Lord blessed (D)the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had (E)fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.
