Context of Psalms 90:7
5You sweep them away in their sleep; they are like the new grass of the morning— 6in the morning it springs up new, but by evening it fades and withers. For we are consumed by Your anger and terrified by Your wrath. 8You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your presence. 9For all our days decline in Your fury; we finish our years with a sigh.
