- 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. The span of their life will be as a sleep; in the morning they are like grass which changes.
- 6. In the morning it flourishes and grows up; in the evening it is cut down and withers.
- 7. ¶ For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
- 8. Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, the sins of our youth in the light of thy countenance.
- 9. For all our days are passed away in thy wrath; we spend our years in emptiness.
- 10. The years of our lives are threescore and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet most of them are labor and sorrow; for life is soon cut off and we fly away.
- 11. Who knows the power of thine anger and the fear of thy wrath?
- 12. ¶ So teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
- 13. Return, O LORD. How long? Wouldst thou not comfort thy servants?
- 14. O satisfy us early with thy mercy, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
- 15. Make us glad because our wickedness is dead, and the years wherein we have seen affliction.
- 16. Let thy work appear to thy servants, and thy glory to their children.
- 17. And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us; for the work of his hands made us, yea, he made us by the work of his hands.
