Psalm 90
Revised Geneva Translation
90 LORD, You have been our habitation from generation to generation.
2 Before the mountains were made (and You had formed the Earth and the world), even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
3 You turn man to contrition. Again, You say, “Return, you sons of Adam.”
4 For a thousand years in Your sight are as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 You have overflowed them. They are asleep. In the morning, they grow like the grass.
6 In the morning it flourishes and grows. In the evening, it is cut down and withers.
7 For we are consumed by Your anger; and by Your wrath are we troubled.
8 You have set our iniquities before You, and our secret sins in the light of Your countenance.
9 For all our days have passed away in Your anger. We have spent our years as a thought.
10 The time of our life is threescore years and ten (and if they be of strength, fourscore years). Yet, their strength is but labor and sorrow; for it is cut off quickly and we flee away.
11 Who knows the power of Your wrath? For according to Your fear is Your anger.
12 Teach us to number our days, so that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
13 Return (O LORD, how long?) and be pacified toward Your servants.
14 Fill us with Your mercy in the morning. So shall we rejoice and be glad all our days!
15 Comfort us according to the days that You have afflicted us, according to the years that we have seen evil.
16 Let Your work be seen toward Your servants, and Your Glory upon their children.
17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us and direct the work of our hands upon us, even direct the work of our hands.
