Psalm 102:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 I am like a desert owl,
like an owl among the ruins.
8 I lie awake and moan,
like a lone sparrow on the roof.
9 All day long my enemies taunt me;
in their rage, they make my name a curse.[a]
Footnotes
- 102:9 They make my name a curse: enemies use the psalmist’s name in phrases such as, “May you be as wretched as this person!”
