New Living Translation

Psalms 90:6-12 New Living Translation (NLT)

6. In the morning it blooms and flourishes,but by evening it is dry and withered.

7. We wither beneath your anger;we are overwhelmed by your fury.

8. You spread out our sins before you—our secret sins—and you see them all.

9. We live our lives beneath your wrath,ending our years with a groan.

10. Seventy years are given to us!Some even live to eighty.But even the best years are filled with pain and trouble;soon they disappear, and we fly away.

11. Who can comprehend the power of your anger?Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve.

12. Teach us to realize the brevity of life,so that we may grow in wisdom.
