9. For all of our days dwindle away in your rage; we complete our years like a sigh.
10. As for the days of our years, within them are seventy years or if by strength eighty years, and their pride is trouble and disaster, for it passes quickly and we fly away.
11. Who knows the strength of your anger, and your rage consistent with the fear due you?
12. So teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13. Return, O Yahweh. How long? And have compassion on your servants.
14. Satisfy us in the morning with your loyal love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
15. Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen calamity.
16. Let your work be visible to your servants, and your majesty to their children.
17. And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish for us the work of our hands, yes, the work of our hands, establish it.
