Psalme 90

¹[A prayer of Moses the man of God.] Lord, thou hast bene our dwelling place in all generations.

²Before the mountaines were broughtforth, or euer thou hadst formed the earth and the world: euen from euerlasting to euerlasting thou art God.

³Thou turnest man to destruction: and sayest, Returne yee children of men.

⁴For a thousand yeeres in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past: and as a watch in the night.

⁵Thou carriest them away as with a flood, they are as a sleepe: in the morning they are like grasse which groweth vp.

⁶In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth vp: in the euening it is cut downe, and withereth.

⁷For we are consumed by thine anger: and by thy wrath are we troubled.

⁸Thou hast set our iniquities before thee: our secret sinnes in the light of thy countenance.

⁹For all our dayes are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our yeeres as a tale that is told.

¹⁰The dayes of our yeres are threescore yeeres and ten, and if by reason of strength they be fourescore yeeres, yet is their strength labour and sorrow: for it is soone cut off, and we flie away.

¹¹Who knoweth the power of thine anger? euen according to thy feare, so is thy wrath.

¹²So teach vs to number our daies: that wee may apply our hearts vnto wisedome.

¹³Returne (O Lord) how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy seruants.

¹⁴O satisfie vs early with thy mercie: that we may reioyce, and be glad all our dayes.

¹⁵Make vs glad according to the dayes wherein thou hast afflicted vs: and the yeeres wherein we haue seene euil.

¹⁶Let thy worke appeare vnto thy seruants: and thy glory vnto their children.

¹⁷And let the beautie of the Lord our God be vpon vs, and establish thou the worke of our hands vpon vs: yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
