<A Prayer <H8605> of Moses <H4872> the man <H0376> of God.> <H0430> Lord, <H0136> thou hast been our dwelling place <H4583> in all <H1755> generations. <H1755>
2
Before the mountains <H2022> were brought forth, <H3205> or ever thou hadst formed <H2342> the earth <H0776> and the world, <H8398> even from everlasting <H5769> to <H5704> everlasting, <H5769> thou [art] God. <H0410>
3
Thou turnest <H7725> man <H0582> to destruction; <H1793> and sayest, <H0559> Return, <H7725> ye children <H1121> of men. <H0120>
4
For a thousand <H0505> years <H8141> in thy sight <H5869> [are but] as yesterday <H0865> <H3117> when it is past, <H5674> and [as] a watch <H0821> in the night. <H3915>
5
Thou carriest them away as with a flood; <H2229> they are [as] a sleep: <H8142> in the morning <H1242> [they are] like grass <H2682> [which] groweth up. <H2498>
6
In the morning <H1242> it flourisheth, <H6692> and groweth up; <H2498> in the evening <H6153> it is cut down, <H4135> and withereth. <H3001>
7
For we are consumed <H3615> by thine anger, <H0639> and by thy wrath <H2534> are we troubled. <H0926>
8
Thou hast set <H7896> our iniquities <H5771> before thee, our secret <H5956> [sins] in the light <H3974> of thy countenance. <H6440>
9
For all our days <H3117> are passed away <H6437> in thy wrath: <H5678> we spend <H3615> our years <H8141> as a tale <H1899> [that is told].
10
The days <H3117> of our years <H8141> [are] threescore years <H8141> and ten; <H7657> and if by reason of strength <H1369> [they be] fourscore <H8084> years, <H8141> yet [is] their strength <H7296> labour <H5999> and sorrow; <H0205> for it is soon <H2440> cut off, <H1468> and we fly away. <H5774>
11
Who knoweth <H3045> the power <H5797> of thine anger? <H0639> even according to thy fear, <H3374> [so is] thy wrath. <H5678>
12
So teach <H3045> [us] to number <H4487> our days, <H3117> that we may apply <H0935> [our] hearts <H3824> unto wisdom. <H2451>
13
Return, <H7725> O LORD, <H3068> how long? and let it repent <H5162> thee concerning thy servants. <H5650>
14
O satisfy <H7646> us early <H1242> with thy mercy; <H2617> that we may rejoice <H7442> and be glad <H8055> all our days. <H3117>
15
Make us glad <H8055> according to the days <H3117> [wherein] thou hast afflicted <H6031> us, [and] the years <H8141> [wherein] we have seen <H7200> evil. <H7451>
16
Let thy work <H6467> appear <H7200> unto thy servants, <H5650> and thy glory <H1926> unto their children. <H1121>
17
And let the beauty <H5278> of the LORD <H3068> our God <H0430> be upon us: and establish <H3559> thou the work <H4639> of our hands <H3027> upon us; yea, the work <H4639> of our hands <H3027> establish <H3559> thou it.
