13. You will come and have mercy on Jerusalem.The time has now come to be kind to her.
14. Your servants love even her stones.They even care about her dust.
15. Nations will fear the name of the Lord.All the kings on earth will honor him.
16. The Lord will rebuild Jerusalem.There his glory will be seen.
17. He will answer the prayers of the needy.He will not reject their prayers.
18. Write these things for the future.Then people who are not yet born will praise the Lord.
