Psalms 102 — Context

So that they may give out the name of the Lord in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;

When the peoples are come together, and the kingdoms, to give worship to the Lord.

He has taken my strength from me in the way; he has made short my days.

I will say, O my God, take me not away before my time; your years go on through all generations:

In the past you put the earth on its base, and the heavens are the work of your hands.

They will come to an end, but you will still go on; they all will become old like a coat, and like a robe they will be changed:

But you are the unchanging One, and your years will have no end.
