Psalms 90:1-9

1Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.

2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.

3You return man to dust and say, "Return, O children of man!"

4For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night.

5You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning:

6in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers.

7For we are brought to an end by your anger; by your wrath we are dismayed.

8You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.

9For all our days pass away under your wrath; we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
