Context of Psalms 102:13
11My days are like a shadow that declineth; And I am withered like grass. 12But thou, O Jehovah, wilt abide for ever; And thy memorial name unto all generations. Thou wilt arise, and have mercy upon Zion; For it is time to have pity upon her, Yea, the set time is come. 14For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, And have pity upon her dust. 15So the nations shall fear the name of Jehovah, And all the kings of the earth thy glory.
