Psalm 102

1 A Prayer8605 of the afflicted,6041 when3588 he is overwhelmed,5848 and poureth out8210 his complaint7879 before6440 the LORD.3068 Hear8085 my prayer,8605 O LORD,3068 and let my cry7775 come935 unto413 thee.

2 Hide5641 not408 thy face6440 from4480 me in the day3117 when I am in trouble;6862 incline5186 thine ear241 unto413 me: in the day3117 when I call7121 answer6030 me speedily.4116

3 For3588 my days3117 are consumed3615 like smoke,6227 and my bones6106 are burned2787 as3644 a hearth.4168

4 My heart3820 is smitten,5221 and withered3001 like grass;6212 so3588 that I forget7911 to eat4480 398 my bread.3899

5 By reason of the voice4480 6963 of my groaning585 my bones6106 cleave1692 to my skin.1320

6 I am like1819 a pelican6893 of the wilderness:4057 I am1961 like an owl3563 of the desert.2723

7 I watch,8245 and am1961 as a sparrow6833 alone909 upon5921 the house top.1406

8 Mine enemies341 reproach2778 me all3605 the day;3117 and they that are mad1984 against me are sworn7650 against me.

9 For3588 I have eaten398 ashes665 like bread,3899 and mingled4537 my drink8249 with weeping,1065

10 Because4480 6440 of thine indignation2195 and thy wrath:7110 for3588 thou hast lifted me up,5375 and cast me down.7993

11 My days3117 are like a shadow6738 that declineth;5186 and I589 am withered3001 like grass.6212

12 But thou,859 O LORD,3068 shalt endure3427 forever;5769 and thy remembrance2143 unto all generations.1755 1755

13 Thou859 shalt arise,6965 and have mercy upon7355 Zion:6726 for3588 the time6256 to favor2603 her, yea,3588 the set time,4150 is come.935

14 For3588 thy servants5650 take pleasure in7521 853 her stones,68 and favor2603 the dust6083 thereof.

15 So the heathen1471 shall fear3372 853 the name8034 of the LORD,3068 and all3605 the kings4428 of the earth776 853 thy glory.3519

16 When3588 the LORD3068 shall build up1129 Zion,6726 he shall appear7200 in his glory.3519

17 He will regard6437 413 the prayer8605 of the destitute,6199 and not3808 despise959 853 their prayer.8605

18 This2063 shall be written3789 for the generation1755 to come:314 and the people5971 which shall be created1254 shall praise1984 the LORD.3050

19 For3588 he hath looked down8259 from the height4480 4791 of his sanctuary;6944 from heaven4480 8064 did the LORD3068 behold5027 413 the earth;776

20 To hear8085 the groaning603 of the prisoner;615 to loose6605 those that are appointed1121 to death;8546

21 To declare5608 the name8034 of the LORD3068 in Zion,6726 and his praise8416 in Jerusalem;3389

22 When the people5971 are gathered6908 together,3162 and the kingdoms,4467 to serve5647 853 the LORD.3068

23 He weakened6031 my strength3581 in the way;1870 he shortened7114 my days.3117

24 I said,559 O my God,410 take5927 me not408 away in the midst2677 of my days:3117 thy years8141 are throughout all generations.1755 1755

25 Of old6440 hast thou laid the foundation3245 of the earth:776 and the heavens8064 are the work4639 of thy hands.3027

26 They1992 shall perish,6 but thou859 shalt endure:5975 yea, all3605 of them shall wax old1086 like a garment;899 as a vesture3830 shalt thou change2498 them, and they shall be changed: 2498

27 But thou859 art the same,1931 and thy years8141 shall have no3808 end.8552

28 The children1121 of thy servants5650 shall continue,7931 and their seed2233 shall be established3559 before6440 thee.

Psalms

Psalm 102

1 HEAR my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come unto thee.

2 Turn not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thine ear unto me; in the day when I call, answer me speedily.

3 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are whitened as if they were burned.

4 My heart is smitten and withered like grass, so that I forget to eat my bread.

5 Because of the voice of my groaning, my bones cleave to my skin.

6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness; I am like an owl of the desert.

7 I am shaken and alone like a sparrow upon the house tops.

8 Mine enemies reproach me all the day; those who once praised me are now sworn against me.

9 I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

10 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath; for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.

11 My days are like a shadow that declines; and I am withered like grass.

12 But thou, O LORD, shalt endure for ever, and thy remembrance to all generations.

13 Arise and have mercy upon Zion; for it is time to have mercy upon her.

14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favor the dust thereof.

15 So the heathen shall worship the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.

16 When the LORD builds up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.

17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.

18 This shall be written for the generation to come; and the people who shall be created shall praise the LORD.

19 For he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth,

20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner, to loose those that are appointed to death,

21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion and his praises in Jerusalem,

22 When the peoples are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.

23 For they have weakened my strength on earth; they warned me of the shortage of my days.

24 O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days; thy years are throughout all generations.

25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the work of thy hands.

26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure; yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture, they shall fade.

27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.

28 The children of thy servants shall continue and their descendants shall be established before thee.
