Psalm 102:1-3
Lexham English Bible

A Plea for Personal and National Help

A prayer of one afflicted, when he grows faint

and pours out his lament before Yahweh.[a]

102 O Yahweh, hear my prayer,
and let my cry for help come to you.
2 Do not hide your face from me
in the day of my trouble.
Incline your ear to me.
In the day I call, answer me quickly,
3 for my days vanish in smoke,
and my bones are charred like a hearth.
