Psalm 90
ISV Parallel NASB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
International Standard VersionNew American Standard Bible 1995
1Lord, you've been our refuge from generation to generation.1A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations.
2Before the mountains were formed or the earth and the world were brought forth, you are God from eternity to eternity.2Before the mountains were born Or You gave birth to the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
3You return people to dust merely by saying, "Return, you mortals!"3You turn man back into dust And say, "Return, O children of men."
4One thousand years in your sight are but a single day that passes by, just like a night watch.4For a thousand years in Your sight Are like yesterday when it passes by, Or as a watch in the night.
5You will sweep them away while they are asleep— by morning they are like growing grass.5You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep; In the morning they are like grass which sprouts anew.
6In the morning it blossoms and is renewed, but toward evening, it fades and withers.6In the morning it flourishes and sprouts anew; Toward evening it fades and withers away.
7Indeed, we are consumed by your anger and terrified by your wrath.7For we have been consumed by Your anger And by Your wrath we have been dismayed.
8You have set our iniquities before you, what we have concealed in the light of your presence.8You have placed our iniquities before You, Our secret sins in the light of Your presence.
9All our days pass away in your wrath; our years fade away and end like a sigh.9For all our days have declined in Your fury; We have finished our years like a sigh.
10We live for 70 years, or 80 years if we're healthy, yet even in the prime years there are troubles and sorrow. They pass by quickly and we fly away.10As for the days of our life, they contain seventy years, Or if due to strength, eighty years, Yet their pride is but labor and sorrow; For soon it is gone and we fly away.
11Who can know the intensity of your anger? Because our fear of you matches your wrath,11Who understands the power of Your anger And Your fury, according to the fear that is due You?
12teach us to keep account of our days so we may develop inner wisdom.12So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.
13Please return, LORD! When will it be? Comfort your servants.13Do return, O LORD; how long will it be? And be sorry for Your servants.
14Satisfy us in the morning with your gracious love so we may sing for joy and rejoice every day.14O satisfy us in the morning with Your lovingkindness, That we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
15Cause us to rejoice throughout the time when you have afflicted us, the years when we have known trouble.15Make us glad according to the days You have afflicted us, And the years we have seen evil.
16May your awesome deeds be revealed to your servants, as well as your splendor to their children.16Let Your work appear to Your servants And Your majesty to their children.
17May your favor be on us, Lord our God; make our endeavors successful; yes, make our endeavors secure!17Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us; And confirm for us the work of our hands; Yes, confirm the work of our hands.
