4 For a thousand years in your sight are like yesterday when it is past, or like a watch in the night.
4 A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.
5 You sweep them away; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning;
5 Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death— they are like the new grass of the morning:
6 in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers.
6 In the morning it springs up new, but by evening it is dry and withered.
7 For we are consumed by your anger; by your wrath we are overwhelmed.

9 For all our days pass away under your wrath; our years come to an end like a sigh.
9 All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a moan.
10 The days of our life are seventy years, or perhaps eighty, if we are strong; even then their span is only toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away.
10 Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
11 Who considers the power of your anger? Your wrath is as great as the fear that is due you.
11 If only we knew the power of your anger! Your wrath is as great as the fear that is your due.
12 So teach us to count our days that we may gain a wise heart.
12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13 Turn, O Lord! How long? Have compassion on your servants!

14 Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, so that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
15 Make us glad as many days as you have afflicted us, and as many years as we have seen evil.
15 Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble.
16 Let your work be manifest to your servants, and your glorious power to their children.
16 May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children.
17 Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and prosper for us the work of our hands— O prosper the work of our hands!
