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. |
