11 My days are like the evening shadow;

I wither away like grass.

12 But you, Lord, sit enthroned forever;

your renown endures through all generations.

13 You will arise and have compassion on Zion,

for it is time to show favor to her;

the appointed time has come.

14 For her stones are dear to your servants;

her very dust moves them to pity.

15 The nations will fear the name of the Lord,

all the kings of the earth will revere your glory.

11 My days are like an evening shadow;

I wither away like grass.

12 But you, O Lord, are enthroned forever;

you are remembered throughout all generations.

13 You will arise and have pity on Zion;

it is the time to favor her;

the appointed time has come.

14 For your servants hold her stones dear

and have pity on her dust.

15 Nations will fear the name of the Lord,

and all the kings of the earth will fear your glory.

11 My life passes as swiftly as the evening shadows.

I am withering away like grass.

12 But you, O Lord, will sit on your throne forever.

Your fame will endure to every generation.

13 You will arise and have mercy on Jerusalem—

and now is the time to pity her,

now is the time you promised to help.

14 For your people love every stone in her walls

and cherish even the dust in her streets.

15 Then the nations will tremble before the Lord.

The kings of the earth will tremble before his glory.

11 My days are like a shadow that lengthens,

And I wither away like grass.

12 But You, O Lord, shall endure forever,

And the remembrance of Your name to all generations.

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 nations shall fear the name of the Lord,

And all the kings of the earth Your glory.

11 My days are like a passing shadow;

I am like dried grass.

12 But, Lord, you rule forever,

and your fame goes on and on.

13 You will come and have mercy on Jerusalem,

because the time has now come to be kind to her;

the right time has come.

14 Your servants love even her stones;

they even care about her dust.

15 Nations will fear the name of the Lord,

and all the kings on earth will honor you.

11 My days are like a shadow that declineth;

And I am withered like grass.

12 But thou, O Jehovah, wilt abide for ever;

And thy memorial name unto all generations.

13 Thou wilt arise, and have mercy upon Zion;

For it is time to have pity upon her,

Yea, the set time is come.

14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones,

And have pity upon her dust.

15 So the nations shall fear the name of Jehovah,

And all the kings of the earth thy glory.

11 My days are like a lengthened-out shadow, and I, I am withered like grass.

12 But thou, Jehovah, abidest for ever, and thy memorial from generation to generation. 13 Thou wilt rise up, thou wilt have mercy upon Zion: for it is the time to be gracious to her, for the set time is come. 14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour her dust. 15 And the nations shall fear the name of Jehovah, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.

11 My days are like a shadow that is getting longer, 

and I wither away like grass. 

12 But you, O Lord, remain forever. 

You are remembered throughout every generation. 

13 You will rise and have compassion on Zion, 

because it is time to grant a favor to it. 

Indeed, the appointed time has come.

for the appointed time has come.

14 Your servants take pleasure in her stones,

and show favor to its dust.

15 Then the nations will fear the name of Yahweh,

and all the kings of the earth your glory.

11 The days of my life are like an evening shadow.

I dry up like grass.

12 But Lord, you are seated on your throne forever.

Your fame will continue for all time to come.

13 You will rise up and show deep concern for Zion.

The time has come for you to show favor to it.

14 The stones of your destroyed city are priceless to us.

Even its dust brings deep concern to us.

15 The nations will worship the Lord.

All of the kings on earth will respect his glorious power.

11 My days are like a lengthened shadow,

And I wither away like grass.

For it is time to be gracious to her,

For the appointed time has come.

14 Surely Your servants find pleasure in her stones

And feel pity for her dust.

15 So the nations will fear the name of the Lord

And all the kings of the earth Your glory.
