- O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done marvelous things, things planned long ago.
- You have made the city a heap of rubble, the fortified town a ruin, the foreigners' stronghold a city no more; it will never be rebuilt.
- Therefore strong peoples will honor you; cities of ruthless nations will revere you.
- You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in his distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat. For the breath of the ruthless is like a storm driving against a wall
- and like the heat of the desert. You silence the uproar of foreigners; as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless is stilled.

- 耶和華阿、你是我的 神.我要尊崇你、我要稱讚你的名.因為你以忠信誠實行過奇妙的事、成就你古時所定的。
- 你使城變為亂堆、使堅固城變為荒場、使外邦人宮殿的城、不再為城、永遠不再建造。
- 所以剛強的民、必榮耀你.強暴之國的城、必敬畏你。
- 因為當強暴人催逼人的時候、如同暴風直吹牆壁、你就作貧窮人的保障、作困乏人急難中的保障、作躲暴風之處、作避炎熱的陰涼。
- 你要壓制外邦人的喧嘩、好像乾燥地的熱氣下落、禁止強暴人的凱歌、好像熱氣被雲影消化。
