Psalms 102

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	Peshitta
1 The prayer of one afflicted and wasting away whose anguish is poured out before the LORD.
2 LORD, hear my prayer; let my cry come to you.	2 ܡܪܝܐ ܫܡܥ ܨܠܘܬܝ ܘܓܥܬܝ ܠܘܬܟ ܬܥܘܠ
3 Do not hide your face from me now that I am in distress. Turn your ear to me; when I call, answer me quickly.	3 ܠܐ ܬܗܦܟ ܐ̈ܦܝܟ ܡܢܝ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܐܘܠܨܢܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܪܟܢ ܠܝ ܐܕܢܟ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܐܩܪܝܟ ܘܒܥܓܠ ܥܢܝܢܝ
4 For my days vanish like smoke; my bones burn away as in a furnace.	4 ܡܛܠ ܕܓܡܪܘ ܒܬܢܢܐ ܝܘ̈ܡܝ ܘܓܪ̈ܡܝ ܚܘܪܘ ܐܝܟ ܡܘܩ̈ܕܐ
5 I am withered, dried up like grass, too wasted to eat my food.	5 ܚܡܐ ܠܒܝ ܐܝܟ ܥܣܒܐ ܘܝܒܫ ܡܛܠ ܕܛܥܝܬ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܗ ܕܠܚܡܝ
6 From my loud groaning I become just skin and bones.	6 ܡܢ ܩܠܐ ܕܬܐ̈ܢܚܬܝ ܕܒܩ ܒܣܪܝ ܠܓܪ̈ܡܝ
7 I am like a desert owl, like an owl among the ruins.	7 ܘܐܬܕܡܝܬ ܠܩܩܐ ܕܒܡܕܒܪܐ ܘܗܘܝܬ ܐܝܟ ܥܘܕܐ ܒܚܪܒܬܐ
8 I lie awake and moan, like a lone sparrow on the roof.	8 ܣܪܕܬ ܘܗܘܝܬ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܐܝܟ ܨܦܪܐ ܕܡܦܪܚܐ ܥܠ ܐܓܪ̈ܐ
9 All day long my enemies taunt me; in their rage, they make my name a curse.	9 ܟܠܗ ܝܘܡܐ ܚܣܕܘܢܝ ܒ̈ܥܠܕܒܒܝ ܘܡܫܒܚ̈ܢܝ ܒܝ ܝܡܝܘ
10 I eat ashes like bread, mingle my drink with tears.	10 ܡܛܠ ܕܩܛܡܐ ܐܝܟ ܠܚܡܐ ܠܥܣܬ ܘܡܫܬܝ ܒܒܟܬܐ ܡܙܓܬ
11 Because of your furious wrath, you lifted me up just to cast me down.	11 ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܚܡܬܟ ܘܪܘܓܙܟ ܕܐܪܝܡܬܢܝ ܘܫܕܝܬܢܝ
12 My days are like a lengthening shadow; I wither like the grass.	12 ܝܘܡ̈ܝ ܐܝܟ ܛܠܠܐ ܐܬܪܟܢܘ ܘܐܢܐ ܝܒܫܬ ܐܝܟ ܥܣܒܐ
13 But you, LORD, are enthroned forever; your renown is for all generations.	13 ܘܐܢܬ ܡܪܝܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܩܝܡ ܐܢܬ ܘܕܘܟܪܢܟ ܠܕܪܕܪܝܢ
14 You will again show mercy to Zion; now is the time for pity; the appointed time has come.	14 ܐܢܬ ܩܘܡ ܘܪܚܡ ܥܠ ܨܗܝܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܛܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܠܡܪܚܡܘ ܥܠܝܗ̇
15 Its stones are dear to your servants; its dust moves them to pity.	15 ܡܛܠ ܕܨܒܘ ܥܒ̈ܕܝܟ ܒܟܐ̈ܦܝܗ̇ ܘܠܥܦܪܗ̇ ܪܚܡܘ
16 The nations shall revere your name, LORD, all the kings of the earth, your glory,	16 ܢܕܚܠܘܢ ܥܡ̈ܡܐ ܠܫܡܟ ܡܪܝܐ ܘܟܠܗܘܢ ܡ̈ܠܟܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܠܐܝܩܪܟ
17 Once the LORD has rebuilt Zion and appeared in glory,	17 ܡܛܠ ܕܒܢܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܠܨܗܝܘܢ ܘܡܬܚܙܐ ܒܫܘܒܚܗ
18 Heeding the plea of the lowly, not scorning their prayer.	18 ܘܡܬܦܢܐ ܥܠ ܨܠܘܬܐ ܕܡܣ̈ܟܢܐ ܘܠܐ ܫܐܛ ܨܠܘܬܗܘܢ
19 Let this be written for the next generation, for a people not yet born, that they may praise the LORD:	19 ܬܬܟܬܒ ܗܕܐ ܠܕܪܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ ܥܡܐ ܕܡܬܒܪܐ ܢܫܒܚ ܠܡܪܝܐ
20 "The LORD looked down from the holy heights, viewed the earth from heaven,	20 ܡܛܠ ܕܐܕܝܩ ܡܢ ܡܪܘܡܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܗ ܡܪܝܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܐܕܝܩ
21 To attend to the groaning of the prisoners, to release those doomed to die."	21 ܠܡܫܡܥ ܐܢܩܬܗ ܕܐܣܝܪܐ ܘܠܡܫܪܐ ܒ̈ܢܝܐ ܡܢ ܡܘܬܐ
22 Then the LORD'S name will be declared on Zion, the praise of God in Jerusalem,	22 ܕܢܫܬܥܘܢ ܒܨܗܝܘܢ ܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܬܫܒܚ̈ܬܗ ܒܐܘܪܫܠܡ
23 When all peoples and kingdoms gather to worship the LORD.	23 ܡܐ ܕܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܥܡ̈ܡܐ ܐܟܚܕܐ ܘܡ̈ܠܟܘܬܐ ܠܡܦܠܚ ܠܡܪܝܐ
24 God has shattered my strength in mid-course, has cut short my days.	24 ܡܟܟܘ ܚܝܠܝ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܘܒܨܝܪܘܬܐ ܕܝܘܡ̈ܝ
25 I plead, O my God, do not take me in the midst of my days. Your years last through all generations.	25 ܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܬܣܩܢܝ ܒܦܠܓܘܬ ܝܘܡ̈ܝ ܘܠܕܪܕܪܝܢ ܫܢܝ̈ܟ
26 Of old you laid the earth's foundations; the heavens are the work of your hands.	26 ܡܢ ܠܩܘܕܡܝܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܬܩܢܬ ܘܥܒܕ ܐ̈ܝܕܝܟ ܫܡܝܐ
27 They perish, but you remain; they all wear out like a garment; Like clothing you change them and they are changed,	27 ܗܢܘܢ ܥܒܪܝܢ ܘܐܢܬ ܩܝܡ ܐܢܬ ܘܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܠܒܘܫܐ ܒܠܝܢ ܘܐܝܟ ܡܪܛܘܛܐ ܡܬܚܠܦܝܢ
28 but you are the same, your years have no end.	28 ܘܐܢܬ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܝܬܝܟ ܐܢܬ ܘܫ̈ܢܝܟ ܠܐ ܓܡܪ̈ܢ
29 May the children of your servants live on; may their descendants live in your presence.	29 ܘܒ̈ܢܝ ܥܒ̈ܕܝܟ ܢܫܪܘܢ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܘܙܪܥܗܘܢ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܢܬܩܢ
