“My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.”
King James Version (KJV)
102:9 Bread - The sense is, dust and ashes are as familiar to me as the eating of my bread; I cover my head with them; I sit, yea, lie down in them, as mourners often did.
102:10 Lifted me - As a man lifts up a thing as high as he can, that he may cast it to the ground with greater force.
102:12 Remembrance - Thy name, Jehovah, which is called by this very word, God's remembrance, or memorial, and that unto all generations, #Exod 3:15|.
102:13 The set time - The end of those seventy years which thou hast fixed.
