^4 (A)For a thousand years in Your sight
Are like yesterday when it is past,
And like a watch in the night.
⁵ You carry them away like a flood;
^(B)They are like a sleep.
In the morning ^(C)they are like grass which grows up:
⁶ In the morning it flourishes and grows up;
In the evening it is cut down and withers.

¹⁰ The days of our lives are seventy years;
And if by reason of strength they are eighty years,
Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow;
For it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
¹¹ Who knows the power of Your anger?
For as the fear of You, so is Your wrath.
^12 (A)So teach us to number our days,
That we may gain a heart of wisdom.
