16 (A)Give glory to the Lord your God
    (B)before he brings darkness,
before your feet stumble
    on the twilight mountains,
and (C)while you look for light
    he turns it into gloom
    and makes it (D)deep darkness.
17 But if you will not listen,
    (E)my soul will weep in secret for your pride;
my eyes will weep bitterly and run down with tears,
    because the Lord's flock has been taken captive.

18 Say to (F)the king and (G)the queen mother:
    “Take a lowly seat,
for (H)your beautiful crown
    has come down from your head.”
