1 BOOK IV A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. ERV — Psalm 90:1
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. ERV — Psalm 90:2
3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men. ERV — Psalm 90:3
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. ERV — Psalm 90:4
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up. ERV — Psalm 90:5
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth. ERV — Psalm 90:6
7 For we are consumed in thine anger, and in thy wrath are we troubled. ERV — Psalm 90:7
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance. ERV — Psalm 90:8
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we bring our years to an end as a tale that is told. ERV — Psalm 90:9
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore years; yet is their pride but labour and sorrow; for it is soon gone, and we fly away. ERV — Psalm 90:10
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger, and thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto thee? ERV — Psalm 90:11
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may get us an heart of wisdom. ERV — Psalm 90:12
13 Return, O LORD; how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants. ERV — Psalm 90:13
14 O satisfy us in the morning with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. ERV — Psalm 90:14
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil. ERV — Psalm 90:15
16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory upon their children. ERV — Psalm 90:16
17 And let the beauty 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. ERV — Psalm 90:17
