Psalms 90:11-17

11Who understands the power of Your anger? [Who connects this brevity of life among us with Your judgment of sin?] And Your wrath, [who connects it] with the [reverent] fear that is due You?

12So teach us to number our days, That we may cultivate and bring to You a heart of wisdom.

13Turn, O Lord [from Your fierce anger]; how long will it be? Be compassionate toward Your servants—revoke Your sentence.

14O satisfy us with Your lovingkindness in the morning [now, before we grow older], That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

15Make us glad in proportion to the days You have afflicted us, And the years we have suffered evil.

16Let Your work [the signs of Your power] be revealed to Your servants And Your [glorious] majesty to their children.

17And let the [gracious] favor of the Lord our God be on us; Confirm for us the work of our hands— Yes, confirm the work of our hands.
