 1 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.**

 2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou *art* God.

 3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.

 4 For a thousand years in thy sight *are but* as yesterday when it is past, and *as* a watch in the night.*

 5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are *as* a sleep: in the morning *they are* like grass *which* groweth up.*

 6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

 7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

 8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret *sins* in the light of thy countenance.

 9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale *that is told*.**

 10 The days of our years *are* threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength *they be* fourscore years, yet *is* their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.*

 11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, *so is* thy wrath.

 12 So teach *us* to number our days, that we may apply *our* hearts unto wisdom.*

 13 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.

 14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

 15 Make us glad according to the days *wherein* thou hast afflicted us, *and* the years *wherein* we have seen evil.

 16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.

 17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
