THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
Psalms 102:7 in context
Psalms 102:4–10
4
My heart is blighted like grass, and withered,
for I forget to eat my bread.
5
By reason of the voice of my groaning,
my bones stick to my skin.
6
I am like a pelican of the wilderness.
I have become as an owl of the waste places.
7
Selected verse
I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
8
My enemies reproach me all day.
Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
9
For I have eaten ashes like bread,
and mixed my drink with tears,
10
because of your indignation and your wrath;
for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
