Psalms, Psalm 90, verses 3-10

You turn man back into dust
And say, “Return, O children of men.”

⁴

For a thousand years in Your sight
Are like yesterday when it passes by,
^cOr as a watch in the night.

⁵

You have^dswept them away like a flood, they^efall asleep;
In the morning they are like grass which^fsprouts anew.

⁶

In the morning it flourishes and^gsprouts anew;
Toward evening it fades and withers away.

⁷

For we have been consumed by Your anger
And by Your wrath we have been^hdismayed.

⁸

You have placed our iniquities before You,
Our secret sins in the light of Your presence.

⁹

For all our days have declined in Your fury;
We have finished our years like aⁱsigh.

¹⁰

As for the days of our^jlife,^kthey contain seventy years,
Or if due to strength, eighty years,
Yet their pride is but labor and sorrow;
For soon it is gone and we fly away.
