3 You turn human beings back to dust. You say to them, "Return to dust."
4 To you a thousand years are like a day that has just gone by. They are like a few hours of the night.
5 You sweep people away, and they die. They are like new grass that grows in the morning.
6 In the morning it springs up new, but by evening it's all dried up.
7 Your anger destroys us. Your burning anger terrifies us.
8 You have put our sins right in front of you. You have placed our secret sins where you can see them clearly.
9 You have been angry with us all of our days. We groan as we come to the end of our lives.
