Chapter 101

1


 

  The prayer of the poor man, when he was anxious, and poured out his supplication before the Lord.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Hear, O Lord, my prayer: and let my cry come to thee.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Turn not away thy face from me: in the day when I am in trouble, incline thy ear to me. In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily.  

 

 

--

4


 

  For my days are vanished like smoke: and my bones are grown dry like fuel for the fire.  

 

 

--

5


 

  I am smitten as grass, and my heart is withered: because I forgot to eat my bread.  

 

 

--

6


 

  Through the voice of my groaning, my bone hath cleaved to my flesh.  

 

 

--

7


 

  I am become like to a pelican of the wilderness: I am like a night raven in the house.  

 

 

--

8


 

  I have watched, and am become as a sparrow all alone on the housetop.  

 

 

--

9


 

  All the day long my enemies reproached me: and they that praised me did swear against me.  

 

 

--

10


 

  For I did eat ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.  

 

 

--

11


 

  Because of thy anger and indignation: for having lifted me up thou hast thrown me down.  

 

 

--

12


 

  My days have declined like a shadow, and I am withered like grass.  

 

 

--

13


 

  But thou, O Lord, endurest for ever: and thy memorial to all generations.  

 

 

--

14


 

  Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come.  

 

 

--

15


 

  For the stones thereof have pleased thy servants: and they shall have pity on the earth thereof.  

 

 

--

16


 

  And the Gentiles shall fear thy name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.  

 

 

--

17


 

  For the Lord hath built up Sion: and he shall be seen in his glory.  

 

 

--

18


 

  He hath had regard to the prayer of the humble: and he hath not despised their petition.  

 

 

--

19


 

  Let these things be written unto another generation: and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord:  

 

 

--

20


 

  Because he hath looked forth from his high sanctuary: from heaven the Lord hath looked upon the earth.  

 

 

--

21


 

  That he might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: that he might release the children of the slain:  

 

 

--

22


 

  That they may declare the name of the Lord in Sion: and his praise in Jerusalem;  

 

 

--

23


 

  When the people assemble together, and kings, to serve the Lord.  

 

 

--

24


 

  He answered him in the way of his strength: Declare unto me the fewness of my days.  

 

 

--

25


 

  Call me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are unto generation and generation.  

 

 

--

26


 

  In the beginning, O Lord, thou foundedst the earth: end the heavens are the works of thy hands.  

 

 

--

27


 

  They shall perish but thou remainest: and all of them shall grow old like a garment: And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed.  

 

 

--

28


 

  But thou art always the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.  

 

 

--

29


 

  The children of thy servants shall continue: and their seed shall be directed for ever.  

 

 

--
