10 Acknowledge the Lord in goodness,
    and praise the Lord of ages!
Then[a] your dwelling will be rebuilt
for you with joy.
    He will bring joy to
    all the captives among you,
    and he will love for all eternity
    all those who have been subjugated.
11 A bright light will shine forth
into the farthest corners of the earth.
    Many nations will come to you
    from afar,
    and inhabitants from all the ends
    of the earth will come
    to your holy name.
    They will bear gifts in their hands
    for the king of heaven.
Generation after generation
will give joyful worship to you
    and honor your name forever and always.
12 May all who have despised you
and slandered you be cursed!
    Cursed are all who hate you and all who speak a harsh word against you.[b]
    But all who revere you
    will be blessed for eternity.
