Psalm 102:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

²Now that I am in trouble,
    please do not turn away from me.
Listen carefully to me.
Now that I am calling to you for help,
    please answer me quickly.
³My life is quickly disappearing,
    like smoke from a fire.
My bones hurt very much,
    as if they were burning in an oven.^[a]
⁴I am very weak and upset,
    like dry grass that will soon die.
I even forget to eat my food.
