Psalms 102:7–11 · Berean Standard Bible

7 I lie awake; I am like a lone bird on a housetop.

8 All day long my enemies taunt me; they ridicule me and curse me.

9 For I have eaten ashes like bread and mixed my drink with tears

10 because of Your indignation and wrath, for You have picked me up and cast me aside.

11 My days are like lengthening shadows, and I wither away like grass.
