Psalm 102 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Do not hide ^H5641 Your face ^H6440 from me in the day ^H3117 of my distress ^H6862;

Incline ^H5186 Your ear ^H241 to me;

In the day ^H3117 when I call ^H7121 answer ^H6030 me quickly ^H4118.

For my days ^H3117 have [fn]vanished ^H3615 in smoke ^H6227,

And my bones ^H6106 have been ^H2787 scorched ^H2787 like a hearth ^H4168.

My heart ^H3820 has been stricken ^H5221 like [fn]grass ^H6212 and it has dried ^H3001 up ^H3001,

Indeed ^H3588, I forget ^H7911 to eat ^H398 my bread ^H3899.

Because ^H4480 of the sound ^H6963 of my groaning ^H585

My bones ^H6106 [fn]cling ^H1692 to my flesh ^H1320.

I resemble ^H1819 a pelican ^H6893 of the wilderness ^H4057;

I have become ^H1961 like an owl ^H3563 of the waste ^H2723 places ^H2723.

I lie ^H8245 awake ^H8245,

I have become ^H1961 like a lonely ^H909 bird ^H6833 on a roof ^H1406.

My enemies ^H340 have reproached ^H2778 me all ^H3605 day ^H3117 long;

Those who [fn]ridicule ^H1984 me swear ^H7650 against me.

For I have eaten ^H398 ashes ^H665 like bread ^H3899

And mixed ^H4537 my drinks ^H8250 with weeping ^H1065

Because ^H4480 H6440 of Your indignation ^H2195 and Your wrath ^H7110,

For You have lifted ^H5375 me up ^H5375 and cast ^H7993 me away ^H7993.

My days ^H3117 are like an outstretched ^H5186 shadow ^H6738,

And as for me, I dry ^H3001 up ^H3001 like [fn]grass ^H6212.

But You, O Yahweh ^H3068, [fn]abide ^H3427 forever ^H5769,

And the remembrance ^H2143 of Your name [fn]from generation ^H1755 to ^H1755 generation ^H1755.

You will arise ^H6965 and have ^H7355 compassion ^H7355 on ^H7355 Zion ^H6726—

For it is time ^H6256 to be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to it,

For the appointed ^H4150 time ^H4150 has come ^H935.

For ^H3588 Your slaves ^H5650 [fn]find ^H7521 pleasure ^H7521 in its stones ^H68

And show ^H2603 grace ^H2603 to its dust ^H6083—

[fn]So the [fn]nations ^H1471 will fear ^H3372 the name ^H8034 of Yahweh ^H3068

And all ^H3605 the kings ^H4428 of the earth ^H776 Your glory ^H3519.

For Yahweh ^H3068 has built ^H1129 up ^H1129 Zion ^H6726;

He has appeared ^H7200 in His glory ^H3519.

He has turned ^H6437 toward ^H6437 the prayer ^H8605 of the [fn]destitute ^H6199

And has not despised ^H959 their prayer ^H8605.

[fn]This ^H2088 will be written ^H3789 for the generation ^H1755 to come ^H314,

And a people ^H5971 yet to be created ^H1254 will praise ^H1984 Yah ^H3050.

For He looked ^H8259 down ^H8259 from His holy ^H6944 height ^H4791;

From heaven ^H8064 Yahweh ^H3068 gazed ^H5027 [fn]upon the earth ^H776,

To hear ^H8085 the groaning ^H603 of the prisoner ^H615,

To set ^H6605 free ^H6605 [fn]those ^H1121 who were doomed ^H1121 to death ^H8546,

To recount ^H5608 the name ^H8034 of Yahweh ^H3068 in Zion ^H6726

And His praise ^H8416 in Jerusalem ^H3389,

When the peoples ^H5971 are gathered ^H6908 together ^H3162,

And the kingdoms ^H4467, to serve ^H5647 Yahweh ^H3068.

He has afflicted ^H6031 my strength ^H3581 in the way ^H1870;

He has shortened ^H7114 my days ^H3117.

I say ^H559, “O my God ^H410, do not take ^H5927 me away ^H5927 in the [fn]midst ^H2677 of my days ^H3117,

Your years ^H8141 are from generation ^H1755 to all generations ^H1755.

“Of old ^H6440 You founded ^H3245 the earth ^H776,

And the heavens ^H8064 are the work ^H4639 of Your hands ^H3027.

“[fn]Even they will perish ^H6, but You will remain ^H5975;

And all ^H3605 of them will wear ^H1086 out ^H1086 like a garment ^H899;

Like clothing ^H3830 You will change ^H2498 them and they will be changed ^H2498.

“But You are [fn]the same ^H1931,

And Your years ^H8141 will not come ^H8552 to an end ^H8552.

“The children ^H1121 of Your slaves ^H5650 will dwell ^H7931 securely,

And their seed ^H2233 will be established ^H3559 before ^H6440 You.”
