Psalms 90:1-10
From Everlasting to Everlasting
A aPrayer of Moses, the bman of God.
1 Lord, you have been our cdwelling place ▼▼Some Hebrew manuscripts (compare Septuagint) our refuge
in all generations.
2 eBefore the fmountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth and the world,
gfrom everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3 You return man to dust
and say, h“Return, iO children of man!” ▼
▼Or of Adam
4For ka thousand years in your sight
are but as lyesterday when it is past,
or as ma watch in the night.
5 You nsweep them away as with a flood; they are like oa dream,
like pgrass that is renewed in the morning:
6in qthe morning it flourishes and is renewed;
in the evening it rfades and swithers.
7 For we are brought to an end by your anger;
by your wrath we are dismayed.
8You have tset our iniquities before you,
our usecret sins in the light of your presence.
9 For all our days pass away under your wrath;
we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
10The years of our life are seventy,
or even by reason of strength eighty;
yet their span ▼
▼Or pride
is but toil and trouble;they are soon gone, and we fly away.
