10 because of your great wrath, for you have taken me up and thrown me aside.
10 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.
10 because of your indignation and anger; for you have taken me up and thrown me down.
10 And all because of your furious anger; you swept me up and threw me out.
10 Because of Your indignation and Your wrath; For You have lifted me up and cast me away.
10 because of your anger and wrath. For you have picked me up and thrown me out.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 102:10
Commentary on Psalm 102:1-11
(Read Psalm 102:1-11)
The whole word of God is of use to direct us in prayer; but here, is often elsewhere, the Holy Ghost has put words into our mouths. Here is a prayer put into the hands of the afflicted; let them present it to God. Even good men may be almost overwhelmed with afflictions. It is our duty and interest to pray; and it is comfort to an afflicted spirit to unburden itself, by a humble representation of its griefs. We must say, Blessed be the name of the Lord, who both gives and takes away. The psalmist looked upon himself as a dying man; My days are like a shadow.
