Psalms 90:1-11

1LordH136, thou hast been our dwellingH4583 placeH1961 in allH1755 generationsH1755.

2BeforeH2962 the mountainsH2022 were broughtH3205 forthH3205, or everH5769 thou hadst formed the earthH776 and the worldH8398, evenH5704 from everlastingH5769 to everlastingH5769, thou art GodH410.

3Thou turnest manH120 to destruction; and sayest, ReturnH7725, ye childrenH1121 of menH120.

4For a thousandH505 yearsH8141 in thy sightH5869 are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watchH821 in the nightH3915.

5Thou carriest them awayH2229 as with a floodH2229; they are as a sleepH8142: in the morningH1242 they are like grassH2682 whichH2682 groweth upH1961.

6In the morningH1242 it flourisheth, and groweth upH3001; in the eveningH6153 it is cutH4135 down, and withereth.

7For weH3588 are consumedH3615 in thine angerH639, and in thy wrathH2534 are weH3588 troubled.

8Thou hast setH7896 our iniquitiesH5771 beforeH6440 thee, our secretH5956 sinsH5771 in the lightH3974 of thy countenanceH6440.

9For allH3605 our daysH3117 are passed awayH6437 in thy wrathH5678: weH3588 bring our yearsH8141 to an endH3615 as a tale that is told.

10The daysH3117 of our yearsH8141 are threescore yearsH8141 and ten, or evenH3588 by reason of strengthH1369 fourscore yearsH8141; yet is their prideH7296 but labour and sorrowH205; for it is soonH3588 goneH1468, and weH3588 flyH5774 away.

11Who knoweth the powerH5797 of thine angerH639, and thy wrathH5678 according to the fearH3374 that is due unto thee?
