NASB Bible

Psalms 90

A Prayer of  aMoses, the man of God.

1

Lord, You have been our  1 adwelling place in all generations.

2

Before  athe mountains were born  1Or You  bgave birth to the earth and the world, Even  cfrom everlasting to everlasting, You are God.

3

You  aturn man back into dust And say, "Return, O children of men."

4

For  aa thousand years in Your sight Are like  byesterday when it passes by,  1Or as a  cwatch in the night.

5

You  ahave  1swept them away like a flood, they  2 bfall asleep; In the morning they are like  cgrass which  3sprouts anew.

6

In the morning it  aflourishes and  1sprouts anew; Toward evening it  bfades and  cwithers away.

7

For we have been  aconsumed by Your anger And by Your wrath we have been  1dismayed.

8

You have  aplaced our iniquities before You, Our  bsecret sins in the light of Your presence.

9

For  aall our days have declined in Your fury; We have finished our years like a  1sigh.

10

As for the days of our  1life,  2they contain seventy years, Or if due to strength,  aeighty years, Yet their pride is but  blabor and sorrow; For soon it is gone and we  cfly away.

11

Who  1understands the  apower of Your anger And Your fury, according to the  bfear  2that is due You?

12

So  ateach us to number our days, That we may  1 bpresent to You a heart of wisdom.

13

Do  areturn, O LORD;  bhow long will it be? And  1be  csorry for Your servants.

14

O  asatisfy us in the morning with Your lovingkindness, That we may  bsing for joy and be glad all our days.

15

 aMake us glad  1according to the days You have afflicted us, And the  byears we have seen  2evil.

16

Let Your  awork appear to Your servants And Your  bmajesty  1to their children.

17

Let the  afavor of the Lord our God be upon us; And  1 bconfirm for us the work of our hands; Yes,  1confirm the work of our hands.
