1Hear my prayer, O Lord ;[#1 Sam 9.16]
let my cry come to you.
2Do not hide your face from me[#Ps 69.17; 71.2]
in the day of my distress.
Incline your ear to me;
answer me speedily in the day when I call.
3For my days pass away like smoke,[#Job 30.30; Ps 31.10; Jas 4.14]
and my bones burn like a furnace.
4My heart is stricken and withered like grass;[#Ps 37.2]
I am too wasted to eat my bread.
5Because of my loud groaning,[#Lam 4.8]
my bones cling to my skin.
6I am like a desert owl of the wilderness,[#Isa 34.11; #102.6 Meaning of Heb uncertain]
like a little owl of the waste places.
7I lie awake;[#Ps 38.11; 77.4]
I am like a lonely bird on the housetop.
8All day long my enemies taunt me;[#Acts 23.12; 26.11]
those who deride me use my name for a curse.
9Indeed, I eat ashes like bread[#Ps 42.3]
and mingle tears with my drink,
10because of your indignation and anger,
for you have lifted me up and thrown me aside.
11My days are like a lengthening shadow;[#v 4 ; Job 14.2]
I wither away like grass.
12But you, O Lord , are enthroned forever;[#Ps 135.13; Lam 5.19]
your name endures to all generations.
13You will rise up and have compassion on Zion,[#Ps 75.2; Isa 60.10]
for it is time to favor it;
the appointed time has come.
14For your servants hold its stones dear
and have pity on its dust.
15The nations will fear the name of the Lord[#1 Kings 8.43; Ps 138.4]
and all the kings of the earth your glory.
16For the Lord will build up Zion;[#Isa 60.1, 2]
he will appear in his glory.
17He will regard the prayer of the destitute[#Neh 1.6]
and will not despise their prayer.
18Let this be recorded for a generation to come,[#Ps 22.31; Rom 15.4]
so that a people yet unborn may praise the Lord :
19that he looked down from his holy height,[#Deut 26.15; Ps 33.13]
from heaven the Lord looked at the earth,
20to hear the groans of the prisoners,[#Ps 79.11]
to set free those who were doomed to die,
21so that the name of the Lord may be declared in Zion[#Ps 22.22]
and his praise in Jerusalem,
22when peoples gather together,[#Ps 86.9]
and kingdoms, to serve the Lord .
23He has broken my strength in midcourse;[#Job 21.21]
he has shortened my days.
24“O my God,” I say, “do not take me away[#Isa 38.10; Hab 1.12]
at the midpoint of my life,
you whose years endure
throughout all generations.”
25Long ago you laid the foundation of the earth,[#Gen 1.1; Ps 96.5]
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
26They will perish, but you endure;[#Isa 34.4; Mt 24.35; Rev 20.11]
they will all wear out like a garment.
You change them like clothing, and they pass away,
27but you are the same, and your years have no end.[#Mal 3.6; Jas 1.17]
28The children of your servants shall live secure;[#Ps 69.36; 89.4]
their offspring shall be established in your presence.
