Context of Psalms 90:7
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. Your 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.
