<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:large;"><span><span class="style2"><br />Psalm 102[a]<br />A prayer of an afflicted person who has grown weak and pours out a lament before the Lord.</p>
<p>1 <br />Hear my prayer, Lord;<br /> let my cry for help come to you.<br />2 <br />Do not hide your face from me<br /> when I am in distress.<br />Turn your ear to me;<br /> when I call, answer me quickly.</p>
<p>3 <br />For my days vanish like smoke;<br /> my bones burn like glowing embers.<br />4 <br />My heart is blighted and withered like grass;<br /> I forget to eat my food.<br />5 <br />In my distress I groan aloud<br /> and am reduced to skin and bones.<br />6 <br />I am like a desert owl,<br /> like an owl among the ruins.<br />7 <br />I lie awake; I have become<br /> like a bird alone on a roof.<br />8 <br />All day long my enemies taunt me;<br /> those who rail against me use my name as a curse.<br />9 <br />For I eat ashes as my food<br /> and mingle my drink with tears<br />10 <br />because of your great wrath,<br /> for you have taken me up and thrown me aside.<br />11 <br />My days are like the evening shadow;<br /> I wither away like grass.</p>
<p>12 <br />But you, Lord, sit enthroned forever;<br /> your renown endures through all generations.<br />13 <br />You will arise and have compassion on Zion,<br /> for it is time to show favor to her;<br /> the appointed time has come.<br />14 <br />For her stones are dear to your servants;<br /> her very dust moves them to pity.<br />15 <br />The nations will fear the name of the Lord,<br /> all the kings of the earth will revere your glory.<br />16 <br />For the Lord will rebuild Zion<br /> and appear in his glory.<br />17 <br />He will respond to the prayer of the destitute;<br /> he will not despise their plea.</p>
<p>18 <br />Let this be written for a future generation,<br /> that a people not yet created may praise the Lord:<br />19 <br />“The Lord looked down from his sanctuary on high,<br /> from heaven he viewed the earth,<br />20 <br />to hear the groans of the prisoners<br /> and release those condemned to death.”<br />21 <br />So the name of the Lord will be declared in Zion<br /> and his praise in Jerusalem<br />22 <br />when the peoples and the kingdoms<br /> assemble to worship the Lord.</p>
<p>23 <br />In the course of my life[b] he broke my strength;<br /> he cut short my days.<br />24 <br />So I said:<br />“Do not take me away, my God, in the midst of my days;<br /> your years go on through all generations.<br />25 <br />In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth,<br /> and the heavens are the work of your hands.<br />26 <br />They will perish, but you remain;<br /> they will all wear out like a garment.<br />Like clothing you will change them<br /> and they will be discarded.<br />27 <br />But you remain the same,<br /> and your years will never end.<br />28 <br />The children of your servants will live in your presence;<br /> their descendants will be established before you.”<br /> </span></span></span></div>
