Psalms 102:16

14 For Your servants delight in her stones and take pity on her dust.

15 So the nations will fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth will fear Your glory.

For the LORD will rebuild Zion; He has appeared in His glory.

17 He will turn toward the prayer of the destitute; He will not despise their prayer.

18 Let this be written for the generation to come, so that a people not yet created may praise the LORD.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
