Psalm 90
90
Book Four
From Everlasting to Everlasting
A #Ps. 17, title; 55:1 Prayer of Moses, the #Deut. 33:1; Josh. 14:6; Ezra 3:2man of God.
1Lord, you have been our #See Ps. 71:3dwelling place#90:1 Some Hebrew manuscripts (compare Septuagint) our refuge
in all generations.
2 #
Prov. 8:25 Before the #[Deut. 33:15; Job 15:7] mountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth and the world,
# See Job 36:26 from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3You return man to dust
and say, #Gen. 3:19 “Return, #Eccles. 12:7O children of man!”#90:3 Or of Adam
4For #2 Pet. 3:8 a thousand years in your sight
are but as #[Ps. 39:5] yesterday when it is past,
or as #Ex. 14:24; Judg. 7:19a watch in the night.
5You #Ps. 58:9 sweep them away as with a flood; they are like #See Job 20:8 a dream,
like #Ps. 37:2; 103:15; 2 Kgs. 19:26; Isa. 40:6-8; 1 Pet. 1:24grass that is renewed in the morning:
6in #See Job 4:20 the morning it flourishes and is renewed;
in the evening it #Job 14:2; [Ps. 92:7] fades and #James 1:11withers.
7For we are brought to an end by your anger;
by your wrath we are dismayed.
8You have #Jer. 16:17; Heb. 4:13 set our iniquities before you,
our #Ps. 19:12secret sins in the light of your presence.
9For all our days pass away under your wrath;
we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
10The years of our life are seventy,
or even by reason of strength eighty;
yet their span#90:10 Or pride is but toil and trouble;
they are soon gone, and we fly away.
11Who considers the power of your anger,
and your wrath according to the fear of you?
12 #
Ps. 39:4
So teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom.
13 #
Ps. 6:4 Return, O Lord! #See Ps. 74:9, 10 How long?
Have #Ps. 106:45; 135:14; Ex. 32:12; Deut. 32:36; Judg. 2:18; Jonah 3:10; See Gen. 6:6pity on your servants!
14Satisfy us in the #See Ps. 46:5 morning with your steadfast love,
that we may #See Ps. 85:6rejoice and be glad all our days.
15Make us glad for as many days as you have #[Deut. 8:2]afflicted us,
and for as many years as we have seen evil.
16Let your #Ps. 77:12; 92:4; 95:9; Deut. 32:4; Hab. 3:2work be shown to your servants,
and your glorious power to their children.
17Let the #Ps. 27:4 favor#90:17 Or beauty of the Lord our God be upon us,
and establish #[Ps. 128:2]; [Isa. 26:12]the work of our hands upon us;
yes, establish the work of our hands!

Psalm 90
90
1 The Praise of a Canticle, of David. Whoever dwells with the assistance of the Most High will abide in the protection of the God of heaven.
2 He will say to the Lord, "You are my supporter and my refuge." My God, I will hope in him.
3 For he has freed me from the snare of those who go hunting, and from the harsh word.
4 He will overshadow you with his shoulders, and you will hope under his wings.
5 His truth will surround you with a shield. You will not be afraid: before the terror of the night,
6 before the arrow flying in the day, before the troubles that wander in the darkness, nor of invasion and the midday demon.
7 A thousand will fall before your side and ten thousand before your right hand. Yet it will not draw near you.
8 So then, truly, you will consider with your eyes, and you will see the retribution of sinners.
9 For you, O Lord, are my hope. You have set the Most High as your refuge.
10 Disaster will not draw near to you, and the scourge will not approach your tabernacle.
11 For he has given his Angels charge over you, so as to preserve you in all your ways.
12 With their hands, they will carry you, lest you hurt your foot against a stone.
13 You will walk over the asp and the king serpent, and you will trample the lion and the dragon.
14 Because he has hoped in me, I will free him. I will protect him because he has known my name.
15 He will cry out to me, and I will heed him. I am with him in tribulation. I will rescue him, and I will glorify him.
16 I will fill him with length of days. And I will reveal to him my salvation.
