Psalms 90:1-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 90
1 Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations. 2Before the mountains were born Or You gave birth to the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God. 3You turn mortals back into dust And say, 'Return, you sons of mankind.' 4For a thousand years in Your sight Are like yesterday when it passes by, Or like a watch in the night. 5You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep; In the morning they are like grass that sprouts anew. 6In the morning it flourishes and sprouts anew; Toward evening it wilts and withers away. 7For we have been consumed by Your anger, And we have been terrified by Your wrath. 8You have placed our guilty deeds before You, Our hidden sins in the light of Your presence.King James Version
Chapter 90
1{A Prayer of Moses the man of God.} Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. 2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. 3Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men. 4For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. 5Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up. 6In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.Christian Standard Bible
2Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from eternity to eternity, you are God.
3You return mankind to the dust, saying, "Return, descendants of Adam."
4For in your sight a thousand years are like yesterday that passes by, like a few hours of the night.
5You end their lives; they sleep. They are like grass that grows in the morning --
New Living Translation
Chapter 90
1Lord, through all the generations you have been our home! 2Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God.
3You turn people back to dust, saying, 'Return to dust, you mortals!'
4For you, a thousand years are as a passing day, as brief as a few night hours.
5You sweep people away like dreams that disappear. They are like grass that springs up in the morning.
6In the morning it blooms and flourishes, but by evening it is dry and withered.
7We wither beneath your anger; we are overwhelmed by your fury.
8You spread out our sins before you — our secret sins — and you see them all.
English Standard Version
Chapter 90
1A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations. 2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. 3You return man to dust and say, “Return, O children of man!” 4For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night. 5You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning: 6in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers. 7For we are brought to an end by your anger; by your wrath we are dismayed. 8You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.New International Version
2Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3You turn people back to dust, saying, 'Return to dust, you mortals.'
4A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.
5Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death-- they are like the new grass of the morning:
