Psalms 90

90[A prayer of Moses, the man of God.] Lord, through all the generations you have been our home!H8605H4872H376H430H136H4583H1755H1755 2Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God.H2022H3205H2342H776H8398H5769H5704H5769H410 3You turn people back to dust, saying, “Return to dust, you mortals!”H7725H582H1793H559H7725H1121H120 4For you, a thousand years are as a passing day, as brief as a few night hours.H505H8141H5869H3117H865H5674H821H3915 5You sweep people away like dreams that disappear. They are like grass that springs up in the morning.H2229H8142H1242H2682H2498 6In the morning it blooms and flourishes, but by evening it is dry and withered.H1242H6692H2498H6153H4135H3001 7We wither beneath your anger; we are overwhelmed by your fury.H3615H639H2534H926 8You spread out our sins before you—our secret sins—and you see them all.H7896H5771H5956H3974H6440 9We live our lives beneath your wrath, ending our years with a groan.H3117H6437H5678H3615H8141H1899 10Seventy years are given to us! Some even live to eighty. But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we fly away.H3117H8141H7657H8141H7657H1369H8084H8141H7296H5999H205H2440H1468H5774 11Who can comprehend the power of your anger? Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve.H3045H5797H639H3374H5678 12Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.H3045H4487H3117H935H3824H2451 13O Lord, come back to us! How long will you delay? Take pity on your servants!H7725H3068H5162H5650 14Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love, so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.H7646H1242H2617H7442H8055H3117 15Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery! Replace the evil years with good.H8055H3117H6031H8141H7200H7451 16Let us, your servants, see you work again; let our children see your glory.H6467H7200H5650H1926H1121 17And may the Lord our God show us his approval and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful!H5278H3068H430H3559H4639H3027H4639H3027H3559
