Psalms 90:6-17 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. In the morning it blooms only to pass away;in the evening it is wilted and withered.

7. Truly we are consumed by your anger,filled with terror by your wrath.

8. You have kept our faults before you,our hidden sins in the light of your face.

9. Our life ebbs away under your wrath;our years end like a sigh.

10. Seventy is the sum of our years,or eighty, if we are strong;Most of them are toil and sorrow;they pass quickly, and we are gone.

11. Who comprehends the strength of your anger?Your wrath matches the fear it inspires.

12. Teach us to count our days aright,that we may gain wisdom of heart.

13. Relent, O Lord! How long?Have pity on your servants!

14. Fill us at daybreak with your mercy,that all our days we may sing for joy.

15. Make us glad as many days as you humbled us,for as many years as we have seen trouble.

16. Show your deeds to your servants,your glory to their children.

17. May the favor of the Lord our God be ours.Prosper the work of our hands!Prosper the work of our hands!
