Psa 102:1 A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is faint and pours out his complaint before Jehovah. Hear my prayer, O Jehovah, and let my cry come to You.
\nPsa 102:2 Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my trouble; bow down Your ear to me in the day I call; answer me quickly.
\nPsa 102:3 For my days are finished in smoke, and my bones are burned like a burning heap.
\nPsa 102:4 My heart is stricken and dried like grass, so that I forget to eat my bread.
\nPsa 102:5 Because of the voice of my sighing, my bones cleave to my flesh.
\nPsa 102:6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness; I am like an owl of the desert.
\nPsa 102:7 I watch and am like a sparrow alone on the housetop.
\nPsa 102:8 My enemies curse me all the day long; those who rave against me have sworn against me.
\nPsa 102:9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and have mixed my drink with weeping,
\nPsa 102:10 because of Your anger and Your wrath; for You have lifted me and cast me down.
\nPsa 102:11 My days are like a shadow stretched out, and I wither like grass.
\nPsa 102:12 But You, O Jehovah, shall dwell forever, and Your memory to generation and generation.
\nPsa 102:13 You shall arise; have mercy on Zion, for the time to pity her, yea, the appointed time has come.
\nPsa 102:14 For Your servants take pleasure in its stones, and pity its dust.
\nPsa 102:15 So nations shall fear the name of Jehovah, and all the kings of the earth Your glory.
\nPsa 102:16 When Jehovah shall build up Zion, He shall be seen in His glory.
\nPsa 102:17 He will turn to the prayer of the destitute, and will not despise their prayer.
\nPsa 102:18 This shall be written for the generation to come, and people to be created shall praise Jehovah.
\nPsa 102:19 For He has looked down from the height of His sanctuary; Jehovah looked from Heaven to the earth,
\nPsa 102:20 to hear the groaning of the prisoner, to set free the sons of death,
\nPsa 102:21 to declare the name of Jehovah in Zion, and His praise in Jerusalem,
\nPsa 102:22 when the peoples and the kingdoms are gathered together to serve Jehovah.
\nPsa 102:23 He diminished my strength in the way; He shortened my days.
\nPsa 102:24 I said, O my God, do not take me up in the half of my days; Your years are through the generation of generations.
\nPsa 102:25 Before time You founded the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
\nPsa 102:26 They shall perish, but You shall endure; yea, all of them shall wear out like a garment; You shall change them like clothing, and they shall be changed.
\nPsa 102:27 But You are He, and Your years shall not be ended.
\nPsa 102:28 The sons of Your servants shall dwell, and their seed shall be established before You. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
