Contextual Overview

1 Heare my prayer O God: and let my crying come in vnto thee. 2 Hyde not thy face from me in ye day of my distresse: encline thine eare vnto me, heare me spedyly in the day that I call. 3 For my dayes are consumed away like smoke: and my bones are burnt vp as though they were a firebrande. 4 My heart is smitten downe and wythered lyke grasse: because I did forget to eate my bread. 5 Through the noyse of my gronyng: my bones wyll scase cleaue to my fleshe. 6 I am become lyke a Pellicane of the wildernesse, and like an Owle that is in the desert: 7 I watch, and am as it were a sparrowe that sitteth alone vpon the house toppe. 8 Myne enemies reuile me all the day long: and they that are in a rage against me, make their oth by me. 9 For I haue eaten asshes as it were bread, and mingled my drynke with weepyng, 10 because of thine indignation and wrath: for thou hast set me vp, and cast me downe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Hear my prayer, O Lord,.... The prayer of a poor, destitute, and afflicted one; his own, and not another's; not what was composed for him, but composed by him; which came out of his own heart, and out of unfeigned lips, and expressed under a feeling sense of his own wants and troubles; and though dictated and inwrought in his heart by the Spirit of God, yet, being put up by him in faith and fervency, it is called his own, and which he desires might be heard:

and let my cry come unto thee; he calls his prayer cry, because it was uttered in distress, and with great vehemency and importunity; and he prays that it might come unto God, even into his ears, and be regarded by him, and not shut out: prayer comes aright to God, when it comes through Christ, and out of his hands, perfumed with the incense of his mediation.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hear my prayer, O Lord - The prayer which I offer in view of my personal trials; the prayer which I offer as one of an afflicted people. Compare Psalms 4:1; Psalms 17:1; Psalms 18:6.

And let my cry come unto thee - My prayer, accompanied with an outward expression of my earnestness. It was not a silent, or a mental prayer; it was a loud and earnest cry. Psalms 5:2; Psalms 18:6, Psalms 18:41; Psalms 30:2; Psalms 72:12; Job 35:9; Job 36:13.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

PSALM CII

The complaint and miserable state of the poor captives, 1-11;

the expectation of deliverance, 12-14;

the conversion of the heathen, 15-18;

the termination of the captivity, 19-22;

the great frailty of man, 23, 24;

the unchangeableness of God, 25-27;

the permanence of the Church, 28.


NOTES ON PSALM CII

The Hebrew, and nearly all the Versions, give the following title to this Psalm: A prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and pours out his sighing before the Lord. There seems to be little doubt that this is the prayer of the captives in Babylon, when, towards the end of the captivity, they were almost worn out with oppression, cruelty, and distress. The Psalm has been attributed to Daniel, to Jeremiah, to Nehemiah, or to some of the other prophets who flourished during the time of the captivity. The author of the Epistle to the Hebrews has applied the twenty-fifth, twenty sixth, and twenty-seventh verses to our Lord, and the perpetuity of his kingdom.

Verse Psalms 102:1. Hear my prayer — The chief parts of the Psalm answer well to the title: it is the language of the deepest distress, and well directed to Him from whom alone help can come.
