Psalm 102:23
βHe weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.β
KJV
Read in Psalm 102Meaning
The lament returns to personal frailty after communal hope. The perception of shortened life is not a prediction readers should apply to themselves.
Human frailty and the Creator's permanence
The prayer returns to shortened human life, then rests in the Creator who remains unchanged across generations.
Read carefully
It is the speaker's lament, not a personalized prophecy.
