Book 27 : KETUVIM - PSALMS - Chapter 102

102:001

A Prayer of the afflicted, when he fainteth, and poureth out his complaint before HaShem.

102:002

O HaShem, hear my prayer, and let my cry come unto Thee.

102:003

Hide not Thy face from me in the day of my distress; incline Thine ear unto me; in the day when I call answer me speedily.

102:004

For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as a hearth.

102:005

My heart is smitten like grass, and withered; for I forget to eat my bread.

102:006

By reason of the voice of my sighing my bones cleave to my flesh.

102:007

I am like a pelican of the wilderness; I am become as an owl of the waste places.

102:008

I watch, and am become like a sparrow that is alone upon the housetop.

102:009

Mine enemies taunt me all the day; they that are mad against me do curse by me.

102:010

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

102:011

Because of Thine indignation and Thy wrath; for Thou hast taken me up, and cast me away.

102:012

My days are like a lengthening shadow; and I am withered like grass.

102:013

But Thou, O HaShem, sittest enthroned for ever; and Thy name is unto all generations.

102:014

Thou wilt arise, and have compassion upon Zion; for it is time to be gracious unto her, for the appointed time is come.

102:015

For Thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and love her dust.

102:016

So the nations will fear the name of HaShem, and all the kings of the earth Thy glory;

102:017

When HaShem hath built up Zion, when He hath appeared in His glory;

102:018

When He hath regarded the prayer of the destitute, and hath not despised their prayer.

102:019

This shall be written for the generation to come; and a people which shall be created shall praise HaShem.

102:020

For He hath looked down from the height of His sanctuary; from heaven did HaShem behold the earth;

102:021

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

102:022

That men may tell of the name of HaShem in Zion, and His praise in Jerusalem;

102:023

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

102:024

He weakened my strength in the way; He shortened my days.

102:025

I say: 'O my G-d, take me not away in the midst of my days, Thou whose years endure throughout all generations.

102:026

Of old Thou didst lay the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the work of Thy hands.

102:027

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 pass away;

102:028

But Thou art the selfsame, and Thy years shall have no end.

102:029

The children of Thy servants shall dwell securely, and their seed shall be established before Thee.'
