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

The Lord’s Eternal Love
A Prayer of the afflicted, (A)when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before the Lord.
102 Hear my prayer, O Lord,
And let my cry come to You.
2 (B)Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my trouble;
Incline Your ear to me;
In the day that I call, answer me speedily.
3 For my days [a]are (C)consumed like smoke,
And my bones are burned like a hearth.
4 My heart is stricken and withered like grass,
So that I forget to eat my bread.
5 Because of the sound of my groaning
My bones cling to my [b]skin.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness;
I am like an owl of the desert.
7 I lie awake,
And am like a sparrow alone on the housetop.
8 My enemies reproach me all day long;
Those who deride me swear an oath against me.
9 For I have eaten ashes like bread,
And mingled my drink with weeping,
10 Because of Your indignation and Your wrath;
For You have lifted me up and cast me away.
11 My days are like a shadow that lengthens,
And I wither away like grass.
12 But You, O Lord, shall endure forever,
And the remembrance of Your name to all generations.
13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion;
For the time to favor her,
Yes, the set time, has come.
14 For Your servants take pleasure in her stones,
And show favor to her dust.
15 So the [c]nations shall (D)fear the name of the Lord,
And all the kings of the earth Your glory.
16 For the Lord shall build up Zion;
(E)He shall appear in His glory.
17 (F)He shall regard the prayer of the destitute,
And shall not despise their prayer.
18 This will be (G)written for the generation to come,
That (H)a people yet to be created may praise the Lord.
19 For He (I)looked down from the height of His sanctuary;
From heaven the Lord viewed the earth,
20 (J)To hear the groaning of the prisoner,
To release those appointed to death,
21 To (K)declare the name of the Lord in Zion,
And His praise in Jerusalem,
22 (L)When the peoples are gathered together,
And the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
23 He weakened my strength in the way;
He (M)shortened my days.
24 (N)I said, “O my God,
Do not take me away in the midst of my days;
(O)Your years are throughout all generations.
25 (P)Of old You laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
26 (Q)They will perish, but You will [d]endure;
Yes, they will all grow old like a garment;
Like a cloak You will change them,
And they will be changed.
27 But (R)You are the same,
And Your years will have no end.
28 (S)The children of Your servants will continue,
And their descendants will be established before You.”

Oración de un afligido
Oración del que sufre, cuando está angustiado, y delante de Jehová derrama su lamento.
102 Jehová, escucha mi oración,
Y llegue a ti mi clamor.
2 No escondas de mí tu rostro en el día de mi angustia;
Inclina a mí tu oído;
Apresúrate a responderme el día que te invocare.
3 Porque mis días se han consumido como humo,
Y mis huesos cual tizón están quemados.
4 Mi corazón está herido, y seco como la hierba,
Por lo cual me olvido de comer mi pan.
5 Por la voz de mi gemido
Mis huesos se han pegado a mi carne.
6 Soy semejante al pelícano del desierto;
Soy como el búho de las soledades;
7 Velo, y soy
Como el pájaro solitario sobre el tejado.
8 Cada día me afrentan mis enemigos;
Los que contra mí se enfurecen, se han conjurado contra mí.
9 Por lo cual yo como ceniza a manera de pan,
Y mi bebida mezclo con lágrimas,
10 A causa de tu enojo y de tu ira;
Pues me alzaste, y me has arrojado.
11 Mis días son como sombra que se va,
Y me he secado como la hierba.
12 Mas tú, Jehová, permanecerás para siempre,
Y tu memoria de generación en generación.
13 Te levantarás y tendrás misericordia de Sion,
Porque es tiempo de tener misericordia de ella, porque el plazo ha llegado.
14 Porque tus siervos aman sus piedras,
Y del polvo de ella tienen compasión.
15 Entonces las naciones temerán el nombre de Jehová,
Y todos los reyes de la tierra tu gloria;
16 Por cuanto Jehová habrá edificado a Sion,
Y en su gloria será visto;
17 Habrá considerado la oración de los desvalidos,
Y no habrá desechado el ruego de ellos.
18 Se escribirá esto para la generación venidera;
Y el pueblo que está por nacer alabará a JAH,
19 Porque miró desde lo alto de su santuario;
Jehová miró desde los cielos a la tierra,
20 Para oír el gemido de los presos,
Para soltar a los sentenciados a muerte;
21 Para que publique en Sion el nombre de Jehová,
Y su alabanza en Jerusalén,
22 Cuando los pueblos y los reinos se congreguen
En uno para servir a Jehová.
23 Él debilitó mi fuerza en el camino;
Acortó mis días.
24 Dije: Dios mío, no me cortes en la mitad de mis días;
Por generación de generaciones son tus años.
25 Desde el principio tú fundaste la tierra,
Y los cielos son obra de tus manos.
26 Ellos perecerán, mas tú permanecerás;
Y todos ellos como una vestidura se envejecerán;
Como un vestido los mudarás, y serán mudados;
27 Pero tú eres el mismo,
Y tus años no se acabarán.(A)
28 Los hijos de tus siervos habitarán seguros,
Y su descendencia será establecida delante de ti.
