←Prev   Psalms 90 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



90:1  Lord, you've been our refuge from generation to generation.
90:2  Before the mountains were formed or the earth and the world were brought forth, you are God from eternity to eternity.
90:3  You return people to dust merely by saying, "Return, you mortals!"
90:4  One thousand years in your sight are but a single day that passes by, just like a night watch.
90:5  You will sweep them away while they are asleep— by morning they are like growing grass.
90:6  In the morning it blossoms and is renewed, but toward evening, it fades and withers.
90:7  Indeed, we are consumed by your anger and terrified by your wrath.
90:8  You have set our iniquities before you, what we have concealed in the light of your presence.
90:9  All our days pass away in your wrath; our years fade away and end like a sigh.
90:10  We live for 70 years, or 80 years if we're healthy, yet even in the prime years there are troubles and sorrow. They pass by quickly and we fly away.
90:11  Who can know the intensity of your anger? Because our fear of you matches your wrath,
90:12  teach us to keep account of our days so we may develop inner wisdom.
90:13  Please return, LORD! When will it be? Comfort your servants.
90:14  Satisfy us in the morning with your gracious love so we may sing for joy and rejoice every day.
90:15  Cause us to rejoice throughout the time when you have afflicted us, the years when we have known trouble.
90:16  May your awesome deeds be revealed to your servants, as well as your splendor to their children.
90:17  May your favor be on us, Lord our God; make our endeavors successful; yes, make our endeavors secure!
