12 From the beginning, our Temple has been honored as a glorious throne for God.

12 A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.

13 Lord, hope of Israel, those who leave you will be shamed. People who quit following the Lord will be like a name written in the dust, because they have left the Lord, the spring of living water.

13 LORD, you are the hope of Israel; all who forsake you will be put to shame. Those who turn away from you will be written in the dust because they have forsaken the LORD, the spring of living water.

14 Lord, heal me, and I will truly be healed. Save me, and I will truly be saved. You are the one I praise.

14 Heal me, LORD, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.

15 The people of Judah keep asking me, "Where is the word from the Lord? Let's see that message come true!"

15 They keep saying to me, “Where is the word of the LORD? Let it now be fulfilled!”

16 Lord, I didn't run away from being the shepherd you wanted. I didn't want the terrible day to come. You know everything I have said; you see all that is happening.

16 I have not run away from being your shepherd; you know I have not desired the day of despair. What passes my lips is open before you.

17 Don't be a terror to me. I run to you for safety in times of trouble.

17 Do not be a terror to me; you are my refuge in the day of disaster.

18 Make those who are hurting me be ashamed, but don't bring shame to me. Let them be terrified, but keep me from terror. Bring the day of disaster on my enemies. Destroy them, and destroy them again.

18 Let my persecutors be put to shame, but keep me from shame; let them be terrified, but keep me from terror. Bring on them the day of disaster; destroy them with double destruction.
