Psa 102:8Mine enemies reproach me all the day; they that are mad against me swear by me.

Psa 102:9

Psa 102:9For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

Psa 102:10

Psa 102:10Because of thine indignation and thy wrath; for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.

Psa 102:11

Psa 102:11My days are like a lengthened-out shadow, and I, I am withered like grass.

Psa 102:19

Psa 102:19For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from the heavens hath Jehovah beheld the earth,

Psa 102:20

Psa 102:20To hear the groaning of the prisoner, to loose those that are appointed to die;

Psa 102:21

Psa 102:21That the name of Jehovah may be declared in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,

Psa 102:22

Psa 102:22When the peoples shall be gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve Jehovah.

Psa 102:23He weakened my strength in the way, he shortened my days.

Psa 102:25

Psa 102:25Of old hast thou founded the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands:

Psa 102:26

Psa 102:26*They* shall perish, but *thou* continuest; and all of them shall grow old as a garment: as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed.

Psa 102:28The children of thy servants shall abide, and their seed shall be established before thee.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
