Psalm
Chapters 90:2-8
New International Version Anglicized
2Before the mountains were bornor you brought forth the whole world,from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3You turn people back to dust,saying, ‘Return to dust, you mortals.’
4A thousand years in your sightare like a day that has just gone by,or like a watch in the night.
5Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death –they are like the new grass of the morning:
6In the morning it springs up new,but by evening it is dry and withered.
7We are consumed by your angerand terrified by your indignation.
8You have set our iniquities before you,our secret sins in the light of your presence.
