Psalms 102

1

Psalm 102 A prayer of an afflicted man. When he is faint and pours out his lament before the LORD.

1

Hear my prayer, O LORD; let my cry for help come to you.

2

Do not hide your face from me when I am in distress. Turn your ear to me; when I call, answer me quickly.

3

For my days vanish like smoke; my bones burn like glowing embers.

4

My heart is blighted and withered like grass; I forget to eat my food.

5

Because of my loud groaning I am reduced to skin and bones.

6

I am like a desert owl, like an owl among the ruins.

7

I lie awake; I have become like a bird alone on a roof.

8

All day long my enemies taunt me; those who rail against me use my name as a curse.

9

For I eat ashes as my food and mingle my drink with tears

10

because of your great wrath, for you have taken me up and thrown me aside.

11

My days are like the evening shadow; I wither away like grass.

12

But you, O LORD, sit enthroned forever; your renown endures through all generations.

13

You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favor to her; the appointed time has come.

14

For her stones are dear to your servants; her very dust moves them to pity.

15

The nations will fear the name of the LORD, all the kings of the earth will revere your glory.

16

For the LORD will rebuild Zion and appear in his glory.

17

He will respond to the prayer of the destitute; he will not despise their plea.

18

Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the LORD:

19

"The LORD looked down from his sanctuary on high, from heaven he viewed the earth,

20

to hear the groans of the prisoners and release those condemned to death."

21

So the name of the LORD will be declared in Zion and his praise in Jerusalem

22

when the peoples and the kingdoms assemble to worship the LORD.

23

In the course of my life he broke my strength; he cut short my days.

24

So I said: "Do not take me away, O my God, in the midst of my days; your years go on through all generations.

25

In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.

26

They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded.

27

But you remain the same, and your years will never end.

28

The children of your servants will live in your presence; their descendants will be established before you."

Psalms 103

1

Psalm 103 Of David.

1

Praise the LORD, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

2

Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits--

3

who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases,

4

who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion,

5

who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

6

The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed.

7

He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the people of Israel:

8

The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love.

9

He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever;

10

he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.

11

For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him;

12

as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

13

As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;

14

for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust.

15

As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field;

16

the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.

17

But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD's love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children's children--

18

with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts.

19

The LORD has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all.

20

Praise the LORD, you his angels, you mighty ones who do his bidding, who obey his word.

21

Praise the LORD, all his heavenly hosts, you his servants who do his will.

22

Praise the LORD, all his works everywhere in his dominion. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

Psalms 104

1

Psalm 104

1

Praise the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty.

2

He wraps himself in light as with a garment; he stretches out the heavens like a tent

3

and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters. He makes the clouds his chariot and rides on the wings of the wind.

4

He makes winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants.

5

He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.

6

You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.

7

But at your rebuke the waters fled, at the sound of your thunder they took to flight;

8

they flowed over the mountains, they went down into the valleys, to the place you assigned for them.

9

You set a boundary they cannot cross; never again will they cover the earth.

10

He makes springs pour water into the ravines; it flows between the mountains.

11

They give water to all the beasts of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12

The birds of the air nest by the waters; they sing among the branches.

13

He waters the mountains from his upper chambers; the earth is satisfied by the fruit of his work.

14

He makes grass grow for the cattle, and plants for man to cultivate-- bringing forth food from the earth:

15

wine that gladdens the heart of man, oil to make his face shine, and bread that sustains his heart.

16

The trees of the LORD are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

17

There the birds make their nests; the stork has its home in the pine trees.

18

The high mountains belong to the wild goats; the crags are a refuge for the coneys.

19

The moon marks off the seasons, and the sun knows when to go down.

20

You bring darkness, it becomes night, and all the beasts of the forest prowl.

21

The lions roar for their prey and seek their food from God.

22

The sun rises, and they steal away; they return and lie down in their dens.

23

Then man goes out to his work, to his labor until evening.

24

How many are your works, O LORD! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.

25

There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number-- living things both large and small.

26

There the ships go to and fro, and the leviathan, which you formed to frolic there.

27

These all look to you to give them their food at the proper time.

28

When you give it to them, they gather it up; when you open your hand, they are satisfied with good things.

29

When you hide your face, they are terrified; when you take away their breath, they die and return to the dust.

30

When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the earth.

31

May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in his works--

32

he who looks at the earth, and it trembles, who touches the mountains, and they smoke.

33

I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

34

May my meditation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the LORD.

35

But may sinners vanish from the earth and the wicked be no more. Praise the LORD, O my soul. Praise the LORD.
