New International Reader's Version

Psalm 90:9-14 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

9. You have been angry with us all of our days. We groan as we come to the end of our lives.

10. We live to be about 70. Or we may live to be 80, if we stay healthy. But all that time is filled with trouble and sorrow. The years quickly pass, and we are gone.

11. Who knows how powerful your anger is? It's as great as the respect we should have for you.

12. Teach us to realize how short our lives are. Then our hearts will become wise.

13. Lord, please stop punishing us! How long will you keep it up? Be kind to us.

14. Satisfy us with your faithful love every morning. Then we can sing with joy and be glad all of our days.
