RSV Psalms 90 Chapter
90:1
A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. LORD, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
90:2
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting thou art God.
90:3
Thou turnest man back to the dust, and sayest, 'Turn back, O children of men!'
90:4
For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night.
90:5
Thou dost sweep men away;they are like a dream, like grass which is renewed in the morning:
90:6
in the morning it flourishes and is renewed;in the evening it fades and withers.
90:7
For we are consumed by thy anger;by thy wrath we are overwhelmed.
90:8
Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
90:9
For all our days pass away under thy wrath, our years come to an end like a sigh.
90:10
The years of our life are threescore and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore;yet their span is but toil and trouble;they are soon gone, and we fly away.
90:11
Who considers the power of thy anger, and thy wrath according to the fear of thee?
90:12
So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.
90:13
Return, O LORD! How long? Have pity on thy servants!
90:14
Satisfy us in the morning with thy steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
90:15
Make us glad as many days as thou hast afflicted us, and as many years as we have seen evil.
90:16
Let thy work be manifest to thy servants, and thy glorious power to their children.
90:17
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.
