Psalms 90
1 A prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, You have been our dwelling place through all generations.
| תְּפִלָּה לְמֹשֶׁה אִֽישׁ־הָאֱלֹהִים אֲֽדֹנָי מָעוֹן אַתָּה הָיִיתָ לָּנוּ בְּדֹר וָדֹֽר׃ |
2 Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.
| בְּטֶרֶם ׀ הָרִים יֻלָּדוּ וַתְּחוֹלֵֽל אֶרֶץ וְתֵבֵל וּֽמֵעוֹלָם עַד־עוֹלָם אַתָּה אֵֽל׃ |
3 You return man to dust, saying, “Return, O sons of mortals.”
| תָּשֵׁב אֱנוֹשׁ עַד־דַּכָּא וַתֹּאמֶר שׁוּבוּ בְנֵֽי־אָדָֽם׃ |
4 For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes, or a watch of the night.
| כִּי אֶלֶף שָׁנִים בְּֽעֵינֶיךָ כְּיוֹם אֶתְמוֹל כִּי יַֽעֲבֹר וְאַשְׁמוּרָה בַלָּֽיְלָה׃ |
5 You whisk them away in their sleep; they are like the new grass of the morning—
| זְרַמְתָּם שֵׁנָה יִהְיוּ בַּבֹּקֶר כֶּחָצִיר יַחֲלֹֽף׃ |
6 in the morning it springs up new, but by evening it fades and withers.
| בַּבֹּקֶר יָצִיץ וְחָלָף לָעֶרֶב יְמוֹלֵל וְיָבֵֽשׁ׃ |
7 For we are consumed by Your anger and terrified by Your wrath.
| כִּֽי־כָלִינוּ בְאַפֶּךָ וּֽבַחֲמָתְךָ נִבְהָֽלְנוּ׃ |
8 You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your presence.
| שַׁתָּ עֲוֺנֹתֵינוּ לְנֶגְדֶּךָ עֲלֻמֵנוּ לִמְאוֹר פָּנֶֽיךָ׃ |
9 For all our days decline in Your fury; we finish our years with a sigh.
| כִּי כׇל־יָמֵינוּ פָּנוּ בְעֶבְרָתֶךָ כִּלִּינוּ שָׁנֵינוּ כְמוֹ־הֶֽגֶה׃ |
10 The length of our days is seventy years— or eighty if we are strong— yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
| יְמֵֽי־שְׁנוֹתֵינוּ בָהֶם שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה וְאִם בִּגְבוּרֹת ׀ שְׁמוֹנִים שָׁנָה וְרׇהְבָּם עָמָל וָאָוֶן כִּי־גָז חִישׁ וַנָּעֻֽפָה׃ |
11 Who knows the power of Your anger? Your wrath matches the fear You are due.
| מִֽי־יוֹדֵעַ עֹז אַפֶּךָ וּכְיִרְאָתְךָ עֶבְרָתֶֽךָ׃ |
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may present a heart of wisdom.
| לִמְנוֹת יָמֵינוּ כֵּן הוֹדַע וְנָבִא לְבַב חׇכְמָֽה׃ |
13 Return, O LORD! How long will it be? Have compassion on Your servants.
| שׁוּבָה יְהֹוָה עַד־מָתָי וְהִנָּחֵם עַל־עֲבָדֶֽיךָ׃ |
14 Satisfy us in the morning with Your loving devotion, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
| שַׂבְּעֵנוּ בַבֹּקֶר חַסְדֶּךָ וּֽנְרַנְּנָה וְנִשְׂמְחָה בְּכׇל־יָמֵֽינוּ׃ |
15 Make us glad for as many days as You have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
| שַׂמְּחֵנוּ כִּימוֹת עִנִּיתָנוּ שְׁנוֹת רָאִינוּ רָעָֽה׃ |
16 May Your work be shown to Your servants, and Your splendor to their children.
| יֵרָאֶה אֶל־עֲבָדֶיךָ פׇעֳלֶךָ וַהֲדָרְךָ עַל־בְּנֵיהֶֽם׃ |
17 May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish for us the work of our hands— yes, establish the work of our hands!
| וִיהִי ׀ נֹעַם אֲדֹנָי אֱלֹהֵינוּ עָלֵינוּ וּמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֵינוּ כּוֹנְנָה עָלֵינוּ וּֽמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֵינוּ כּוֹנְנֵֽהוּ׃ |
