< Psalms 90 >
1 A prayer of Moses [the] man of God O Lord a dwelling place you you have been of us in a generation and a generation.
“BOOK IV. A prayer of Moses, the man of God.” LORD! thou hast been our dwelling-place In all generations!
2 Before - mountains they were born and you brought forth [the] earth and [the] world and from antiquity until perpetuity you [are] 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 You return humankind to crushed matter and you said return O children of humankind.
But man thou turnest again to dust, And sayst, “Return, ye children of men!”
4 For a thousand years in view your [are] like a day of yesterday that it passes and a watch in the night.
For a thousand years are, in thy sight, As yesterday when it is past, And as a watch in the night.
5 You flood them sleep they are in the morning like grass [which] it sprouts up.
Thou carriest him away as with a flood; He is a dream; In the morning he springeth up like grass,
6 In the morning it flourishes and it sprouts up to the evening it withers and it dries up.
Which flourisheth and shooteth up in the morning, And in the evening is cut down, and withered.
7 For we come to an end in anger your and by rage your we are terrified.
For we are consumed by thine anger, And by thy wrath are we destroyed.
8 (You set *Q(k)*) iniquities our to before you concealed [sins] our to [the] light of face your.
Thou settest our iniquities before thee, Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 For all days our they turn in fury your we finish years our like a sigh.
By reason of thine anger all our days vanish away; We spend our years like a thought.
10 [the] days of Years our in them [are] seventy year[s] and if by strength - eighty year[s] and pride their [is] toil and trouble for it passes away quickly and we flew away!
The days of our life are threescore years and ten, And, by reason of strength, may be fourscore years: Yet is the pride of them weariness and sorrow; For it vanisheth swiftly, and we fly away.
11 Who? [is] knowing [the] strength of anger your and [is] like fear your fury your.
Yet who attendeth to the power of thine anger? Who with due reverence regardeth thine indignation?
12 To count days our thus teach [us] so we may bring a heart of wisdom.
Teach us so to number our days, That we may apply our hearts to wisdom!
13 Return! O Yahweh until when? and have compassion on servants your.
Desist, O LORD! How long—? Have compassion upon thy servants!
14 Satisfy us in the morning covenant loyalty your so let us shout for joy and let us rejoice in all days our.
Satisfy us speedily with thy mercy, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days!
15 Make rejoice us according to [the] days [which] you afflicted us [the] years [which] we saw trouble.
Make us glad according to the time in which thou hast afflicted us; According to the years in which we have seen adversity!
16 May it appear to servants your deed[s] your and majesty your to children their.
Let thy deeds be known to thy servants, And thy glory to their children!
17 And let it be - [the] kindness of [the] Lord God our towards us and [the] work of hands our establish! on us and [the] work of hands our establish it.
Let the favor of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish for us the work of our hands; Yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it!
