Psalms 90
King James Version

1 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 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 Thou turnest man to destruction;
and sayest, Return, ye children of men.​
4 For a thousand years in thy sight
are but as yesterday when it is past,
and as a watch in the night.​
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood;
they are as a sleep:
in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.​
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up;
in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.​

7 For we are consumed by thine anger,
and by thy wrath are we troubled.​
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee,
our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.​
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath:
we spend our years as a tale that is told.​
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten;
and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years,
yet is their strength labour and sorrow;
for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.​
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger?
even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.​
12 So teach us to number our days,
that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.​

13 Return, O Lord,
how long?
and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.​
14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy;
that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.​
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us,
and the years wherein we have seen evil.​
16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants,
and thy glory unto their children.​
17 And let the beauty 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.
