Psalm 102:22-24
New Catholic Bible
22 Then the name of the Lord will be proclaimed in Zion,
and his praise[a] in Jerusalem
23 when all peoples and kingdoms come together
to worship the Lord.[b]
24 [c]He has taken away my strength on my life’s journey;
he has cut short my days.

- Psalm 102:24 Here the individual lament and the national supplication are combined. Upon meditating on the precariousness of existence before the God who endures forever, a hope arises, the hope of not being abandoned. The Letter to the Hebrews (Heb 13:8) will proclaim: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
