Psalms 90

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 <A Prayer of Moses, the man of God.> Lord, you have been our resting-place in all generations.

2 Before the mountains were made, before you had given birth to the earth and the world, before time was, and for ever, you are God.

3 You send man back to his dust; and say, Go back, you children of men.

4 For to you a thousand years are no more than yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night.

5 ...

6 In the morning it is green; in the evening it is cut down, and becomes dry.

7 We are burned up by the heat of your passion, and troubled by your wrath.

8 You have put our evil doings before you, our secret sins in the light of your face.

9 For all our days have gone by in your wrath; our years come to an end like a breath.

10 The measure of our life is seventy years; and if through strength it may be eighty years, its pride is only trouble and sorrow, for it comes to an end and we are quickly gone.

11 Who has knowledge of the power of your wrath, or who takes note of the weight of your passion?

12 So give us knowledge of the number of our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom.

13 Come back, O Lord; how long? let your purpose for your servants be changed.

14 In the morning give us your mercy in full measure; so that we may have joy and delight all our days.

15 Make us glad in reward for the days of our sorrow, and for the years in which we have seen evil.

16 Make your work clear to your servants, and your glory to their children.

17 Let the pleasure of the Lord our God be on us: O Lord, give strength to the work of our hands.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 0 (Tefillah of Moshe, ish HaElohim) Adonoi, Thou hast been our ma’on (dwelling place) b’dor vador.

2 Before the harim were brought forth, or ever Thou hadst formed eretz and the tevel (inhabited world), even from olam ad olam, Thou art El (G-d).

3 Thou turnest enosh to dakka (dust); and sayest, Shuvu, ye Bnei Adam.

4 For an elef shanim in Thy sight are but as yom etmol (yesterday) when it is past, and as an ashmurah (watch, division of time) in the lailah.

5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sheinah (sleep); in the boker they are like khatzir (grass) which withereth.

6 In the boker it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the erev it is cut down, and drieth up.

7 For we are consumed by Thine anger, and by Thy chemah are we troubled.

8 Thou hast set avonoteinu before Thee, our secret sins in the ohr of Thy countenance.

9 For kol yameinu are passed away in Thy evrah (fury); we spend shaneinu (our years) like a sigh.

10 The yamim of shnoteinu (our years, life) are threescore shanah and ten; and if by reason of gevurot they are fourscore shanah, yet is their boast amal (trouble, toil) and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

11 Who has da’as of the oz (power) of Thine anger? Thy evrah is as great as Thy yirah (fear of, reverence owed G-d).

12 So teach us to number yameinu, that we may apply levav unto chochmah.

13 Shuvah, Hashem. Ad mosai? Have compassion on Thy avadim.

14 O satisfy us baboker with Thy chesed; that we may sing for joy and be glad kol yameinu (all our days).

15 Make us glad according to the days wherein Thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen ra’ah.

16 Let Thy work appear unto Thy avadim, and Thy glory unto their banim.

17 And let the no’am (favor, delightfulness) of Adonoi Eloheinu be upon us; and establish Thou the ma’aseh yadeinu upon us; yes, the ma’aseh yadeinu establish Thou it.
