| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3You return man to dust and say, “Return, O children of man!” |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning: |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7For we are brought to an end by your anger; by your wrath we are dismayed. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9For all our days pass away under your wrath; we bring our years to an end like a sigh. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty; yet their span is but toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Who considers the power of your anger, and your wrath according to the fear of you? |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13Return, O LORD! How long? Have pity on your servants! |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, and for as many years as we have seen evil. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16Let your work be shown to your servants, and your glorious power to their children. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands! |
