Psalms 89:45-52

⁴⁵You have shortened the days of his youth. You have covered him with shame. Selah

⁴⁶How long, Yahweh? Will you hide yourself, forever? How long will your anger burn like fire?

⁴⁷Oh, think about how short my time is, and for what uselessness you have created all the children of mankind!

⁴⁸Who can live and not die, or rescue his own life from the hand of Sheol? Selah

⁴⁹Lord, where are your former acts of covenant faithfulness that you swore to David in your truthfulness?

⁵⁰Call to mind, Lord, the mocking directed against your servants and how I bear in my heart so many insults from the nations.

⁵¹Your enemies hurl insults, Yahweh; they mock the footsteps of your anointed one.

⁵²Blessed be Yahweh forever. Amen and Amen.
