Psalms 90: 3 - 6, 12 - 13, 14 - 17
|
| 3
|
Thou turnest man back to the dust, and sayest, "Turn back, O children of men!"
|
| 4
|
For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night.
|
| 5
|
Thou dost sweep men away; they are like a dream, like grass which is renewed in the morning:
|
| 6
|
in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers.
|
| 12
|
So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.
|
| 13
|
Return, O LORD! How long? Have pity on thy servants!
|
| 14
|
Satisfy us in the morning with thy steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
|
| 15
|
Make us glad as many days as thou hast afflicted us, and as many years as we have seen evil.
|
| 16
|
Let thy work be manifest to thy servants, and thy glorious power to their children.
|
| 17
|
Let the favor 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
