Psalms 90:3-10

3People return to dust in the ground when they die. You say, ‘Become dust again, you people.’

4For you, a thousand years is only a short time. They pass as quickly as a day for you, or just a few hours in the night.

5You cause people's lives to end, as a dream finishes when you wake up. People are like grass that appears in the morning.

6During the morning, it grows well. By the evening, it becomes dry and it dies.

7Your anger destroys us, and we become very afraid.

8All our sins are there for you to see. You even see the sins that we have tried to hide.

9Your anger gives us trouble all through our lives. Then our lives end in a short groan.

10The number of our days make 70 years, or maybe 80 years if we are strong enough. But even in the best years of our lives, we have trouble and pain. Our lives quickly pass, and we hurry towards death.
