New Living TranslationBerean Study Bible
1Lord, through all the generations you have been our home!1A prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, You have been our dwelling place through all generations.
2Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God.2Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.
3You turn people back to dust, saying, “Return to dust, you mortals!”3You return man to dust, saying, “Return, O sons of mortals.”
4For you, a thousand years are as a passing day, as brief as a few night hours.4For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes, or a watch of the night.
5You sweep people away like dreams that disappear. They are like grass that springs up in the morning.5You whisk them away in their sleep; they are like the new grass of the morning—
6In the morning it blooms and flourishes, but by evening it is dry and withered.6in the morning it springs up new, but by evening it fades and withers.
7We wither beneath your anger; we are overwhelmed by your fury.7For we are consumed by Your anger and terrified by Your wrath.
8You spread out our sins before you— our secret sins—and you see them all.8You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your presence.
9We live our lives beneath your wrath, ending our years with a groan.9For all our days decline in Your fury; we finish our years with a sigh.
10Seventy years are given to us! Some even live to eighty. But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we fly away.10The length of our days is seventy years—or eighty if we are strong—yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
11Who can comprehend the power of your anger? Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve.11Who knows the power of Your anger? Your wrath matches the fear You are due.
12Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.12So teach us to number our days, that we may present a heart of wisdom.
13O LORD, come back to us! How long will you delay? Take pity on your servants!13Return, O LORD! How long will it be? Have compassion on Your servants.
14Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love, so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.14Satisfy us in the morning with Your loving devotion, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
15Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery! Replace the evil years with good.15Make us glad for as many days as You have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
16Let us, your servants, see you work again; let our children see your glory.16May Your work be shown to Your servants, and Your splendor to their children.
17And may the Lord our God show us his approval and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful!17May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish for us the work of our hands—yes, establish the work of our hands!
