Psalm 102:9-14

New International Version

⁹ For I eat ashes^(A) as my food
    and mingle my drink with tears^(B)
10 because of your great wrath,^(C)
    for you have taken me up and thrown me aside.
¹¹ My days are like the evening shadow;^(D)
    I wither^(E) away like grass.

¹² But you, Lord, sit enthroned forever;^(F)
    your renown endures^(G) through all generations.^(H)
13 You will arise^(I) and have compassion^(J) on Zion,
    for it is time^(K) to show favor^(L) to her;
    the appointed time^(M) has come.
¹⁴ For her stones are dear to your servants;
    her very dust moves them to pity.
