Psalms 90
1 A prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, thou hast bene our habitation from generation to generation.
A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place In all generations.
2 Before the mountaines were made, and before thou hadst formed the earth, and the world, euen from euerlasting to euerlasting thou art our God.
Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Thou turnest man to destruction: againe thou sayest, Returne, ye sonnes of Adam.
Thou turnest man to destruction, And sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 For a thousande yeeres in thy sight are as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
For a thousand years in thy sight Are but as yesterday when it is past, And as a watch in the night.
5 Thou hast ouerflowed them: they are as a sleepe: in the morning he groweth like the grasse:
Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: In the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
6 In the morning it florisheth and groweth, but in the euening it is cut downe and withereth.
In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; In the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
For we are consumed in thine anger, And in thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, and our secret sinnes in the light of thy countenance.
Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 For all our dayes are past in thine anger: we haue spent our yeeres as a thought.
For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: We bring our years to an end as a sigh.
10 The time of our life is threescore yeeres and ten, and if they be of strength, fourescore yeeres: yet their strength is but labour and sorowe: for it is cut off quickly, and we flee away.
The days of our years are threescore years and ten, Or even by reason of strength fourscore years; Yet is their pride but labor and sorrow; For it is soon gone, and we fly away.
11 Who knoweth the power of thy wrath? for according to thy feare is thine anger.
Who knoweth the power of thine anger, And thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto thee?
12 Teach vs so to nomber our dayes, that we may apply our heartes vnto wisdome.
So teach us to number our days, That we may get us a heart of wisdom.
13 Returne (O Lord, howe long?) and be pacified toward thy seruants.
Return, O Jehovah; how long? And let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14 Fill vs with thy mercie in the morning: so shall we reioyce and be glad all our dayes.
Oh satisfy us in the morning with thy lovingkindness, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Comfort vs according to the dayes that thou hast afflicted vs, and according to the yeeres that we haue seene euill.
Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, And the years wherein we have seen evil.
16 Let thy worke bee seene towarde thy seruants, and thy glory vpon their children.
Let thy work appear unto thy servants, And thy glory upon their children.
17 And let the beautie of the Lord our God be vpon vs, and direct thou the worke of our hands vpon vs, euen direct the worke of our handes.
And let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us; And establish thou the work of our hands upon us; Yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
