Oración de un afligido
Oración de alguien que sufre y que, en su angustia, expone su queja en presencia del Señor.
102 Señor, escucha mi oración;
¡deja que mi queja llegue a tus oídos!
2 No te alejes de mí cuando me veas angustiado;
inclina a mí tu oído,
¡respóndeme pronto cuando te invoque!
3 Mi vida se va desvaneciendo, como el humo;
mis huesos se deshacen, como tizón quemado.
4 Débil está mi corazón, y seco cual la hierba;
¡hasta me he olvidado de comer!
5 Tanto he llorado
que los huesos se me pegan a la carne.
6 Soy como los pelícanos del desierto;
¡soy como los búhos de las soledades!
7 Ya no duermo, y hasta me siento
como un pájaro solitario sobre el tejado.
8 Todos los días me insultan mis enemigos;
se confabulan y hacen planes contra mí.
9 El pan que como, me sabe a ceniza;
lo que bebo, se mezcla con mis lágrimas.
10 ¡Y es porque estás enojado conmigo!
¡Primero me elevas, y luego me dejas caer!
11 Mi vida se diluye como una sombra;
¡me voy secando como la hierba!
12 Pero tú, Señor, permaneces para siempre,
y todas las generaciones te recordarán.
13 Te levantarás y tendrás misericordia de Sión,
porque ya se ha cumplido su tiempo;
¡ya es hora de que le tengas misericordia!
14 Tus siervos aman cada una de sus piedras;
ven sus ruinas, y se compadecen de ella.
15 Señor, las naciones honrarán tu nombre;
los reyes de la tierra reconocerán tu gloria,
16 porque tú, Señor, reconstruirás a Sión,
y en su esplendor serás reconocido.
17 Tendrás en cuenta la oración de los pobres,
y no dejarás de escuchar sus ruegos.
18 Esto, Señor, quedará escrito para los pueblos futuros,
¡para que las generaciones del mañana te alaben!
19 Desde su alto santuario, el Señor observa;
desde los cielos, el Señor contempla la tierra
20 para oír el clamor de los cautivos
y dar libertad a los sentenciados a muerte;
21 para que en Sión se anuncie el nombre del Señor,
¡para que en Jerusalén se proclame su alabanza!
22 Entonces todas las naciones y todos los reinos
vendrán y se unirán para servir al Señor.
23 En mi camino, el Señor me retiró su apoyo;
¡me recortó los días de mi vida!
24 Pero yo le supliqué:
«Dios mío, tú vives por todas las generaciones:
¡no me reduzcas la mitad de mi vida!
25 Tú fundaste la tierra desde el principio,
y con tus propias manos formaste los cielos.
26 Un día, ellos serán destruidos;
envejecerán, como vestidos usados,
y tú los cambiarás por otros;
¡Pero tú permanecerás!
27 ¡Tú seguirás siendo el mismo,
y tus años nunca tendrán fin!(A)
28 Los hijos de tus siervos vivirán tranquilos,
y sus descendientes se afirmarán en tu presencia.

Psalm 102[a]
A prayer of an afflicted person who has grown weak and pours out a lament before the Lord.
1 Hear my prayer,(A) Lord;
let my cry for help(B) come to you.
2 Do not hide your face(C) from me
when I am in distress.
Turn your ear(D) to me;
when I call, answer me quickly.
3 For my days vanish like smoke;(E)
my bones(F) burn like glowing embers.
4 My heart is blighted and withered like grass;(G)
I forget to eat my food.(H)
5 In my distress I groan aloud(I)
and am reduced to skin and bones.
6 I am like a desert owl,(J)
like an owl among the ruins.
7 I lie awake;(K) I have become
like a bird alone(L) on a roof.
8 All day long my enemies(M) taunt me;(N)
those who rail against me use my name as a curse.(O)
9 For I eat ashes(P) as my food
and mingle my drink with tears(Q)
10 because of your great wrath,(R)
for you have taken me up and thrown me aside.
11 My days are like the evening shadow;(S)
I wither(T) away like grass.
12 But you, Lord, sit enthroned forever;(U)
your renown endures(V) through all generations.(W)
13 You will arise(X) and have compassion(Y) on Zion,
for it is time(Z) to show favor(AA) to her;
the appointed time(AB) has come.
14 For her stones are dear to your servants;
her very dust moves them to pity.
15 The nations will fear(AC) the name of the Lord,
all the kings(AD) of the earth will revere your glory.
16 For the Lord will rebuild Zion(AE)
and appear in his glory.(AF)
17 He will respond to the prayer(AG) of the destitute;
he will not despise their plea.
18 Let this be written(AH) for a future generation,
that a people not yet created(AI) may praise the Lord:
19 “The Lord looked down(AJ) from his sanctuary on high,
from heaven he viewed the earth,
20 to hear the groans of the prisoners(AK)
and release those condemned to death.”
21 So the name of the Lord will be declared(AL) in Zion
and his praise(AM) in Jerusalem
22 when the peoples and the kingdoms
assemble to worship(AN) the Lord.
23 In the course of my life[b] he broke my strength;
he cut short my days.(AO)
24 So I said:
“Do not take me away, my God, in the midst of my days;
your years go on(AP) through all generations.
25 In the beginning(AQ) you laid the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens(AR) are the work of your hands.(AS)
26 They will perish,(AT) but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment.
Like clothing you will change them
and they will be discarded.
27 But you remain the same,(AU)
and your years will never end.(AV)
28 The children of your servants(AW) will live in your presence;
their descendants(AX) will be established before you.”

Psalm 102
New King James Version
The Lord’s Eternal Love
A Prayer of the afflicted, (A)when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before the Lord.
102 Hear my prayer, O Lord,
And let my cry come to You.
2 (B)Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my trouble;
Incline Your ear to me;
In the day that I call, answer me speedily.
3 For my days [a]are (C)consumed like smoke,
And my bones are burned like a hearth.
4 My heart is stricken and withered like grass,
So that I forget to eat my bread.
5 Because of the sound of my groaning
My bones cling to my [b]skin.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness;
I am like an owl of the desert.
7 I lie awake,
And am like a sparrow alone on the housetop.
8 My enemies reproach me all day long;
Those who deride me swear an oath against me.
9 For I have eaten ashes like bread,
And mingled my drink with weeping,
10 Because of Your indignation and Your wrath;
For You have lifted me up and cast me away.
11 My days are like a shadow that lengthens,
And I wither away like grass.
12 But You, O Lord, shall endure forever,
And the remembrance of Your name to all generations.
13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion;
For the time to favor her,
Yes, the set time, has come.
14 For Your servants take pleasure in her stones,
And show favor to her dust.
15 So the [c]nations shall (D)fear the name of the Lord,
And all the kings of the earth Your glory.
16 For the Lord shall build up Zion;
(E)He shall appear in His glory.
17 (F)He shall regard the prayer of the destitute,
And shall not despise their prayer.
18 This will be (G)written for the generation to come,
That (H)a people yet to be created may praise the Lord.
19 For He (I)looked down from the height of His sanctuary;
From heaven the Lord viewed the earth,
20 (J)To hear the groaning of the prisoner,
To release those appointed to death,
21 To (K)declare the name of the Lord in Zion,
And His praise in Jerusalem,
22 (L)When the peoples are gathered together,
And the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
23 He weakened my strength in the way;
He (M)shortened my days.
24 (N)I said, “O my God,
Do not take me away in the midst of my days;
(O)Your years are throughout all generations.
25 (P)Of old You laid the foundation of the earth,
And the heavens are the work of Your hands.
26 (Q)They will perish, but You will [d]endure;
Yes, they will all grow old like a garment;
Like a cloak You will change them,
And they will be changed.
27 But (R)You are the same,
And Your years will have no end.
28 (S)The children of Your servants will continue,
And their descendants will be established before You.”
