Psalms 102:1-7 ▼

1 A prayer of a suffering person who is weak and pours out his lament before the L ord. ”8224; LORD, hear my prayer; let my cry for help come before you.

2 Do not hide your face from me in my day of trouble. Listen closely to me; answer me quickly when I call.

3 For my days vanish like smoke, and my bones burn like a furnace.

4 My heart is suffering, withered like grass; I even forget to eat my food.

5 Because of the sound of my groaning, my flesh sticks to my bones.

6 I am like an eagle owl, like a little owl among the ruins.

7 I stay awake; I am like a solitary bird on a roof.
