Psalm 102 KJV

1. 102:1  Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come unto thee.
2. 102:2  Hide 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. 102:3  For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.
4. 102:4  My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.
5. 102:5  By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
6. 102:6  I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.
7. 102:7  I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.
8. 102:8  Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me.
9. 102:9  For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.
10. 102:10  Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.
11. 102:11  My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.
12. 102:12  But thou, O LORD, shall endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all generations.
13. 102:13  Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
14. 102:14  For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof.
15. 102:15  So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
16. 102:16  When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
17. 102:17  He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
18. 102:18  This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
19. 102:19  For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;
20. 102:20  To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;
21. 102:21  To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
22. 102:22  When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
23. 102:23  He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.
24. 102:24  I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.
25. 102:25  Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
26. 102:26  They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:
27. 102:27  But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
28. 102:28  The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee.
