Context of Psalms 102:13
11My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass. 12But thou, O Yhwh, shalt endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all generations. Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come. 14For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof. 15So the heathen shall fear the name of Yhwh, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
