Psalms 102:8-12 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

8. My bitter en'mies all the dayreproaches cast on me;And, being mad at me, with rageagainst me sworn they be.

9. For why? I ashes eaten havelike bread, in sorrows deep;My drink I also mingled havewith tears that I did weep.

10. Thy wrath and indignationdid cause this grief and pain;For thou hast lift me up on high,and cast me down again.

11. My days are like unto a shade,which doth declining pass;And I am dry'd and withered,ev'n like unto the grass.

12. But thou, Lord, everlasting art,and thy remembrance shallContinually endure,and be to generations all.
