3When people die, you cause their corpses to become soil again; you change their corpses to become dirt like the first man was created from.
4When you ◄consider/think about► time, a thousand years are as short as SIM one day which passes; you consider that HYP they are as short as a few hours in the night.
5You cause people suddenly to die MET; they live only a short time, like a dream lasts only a short time. They are like grass/weeds SIM that grow up.
6In the morning DOU the grass sprouts and grows well, but in the evening it dries up and ◄completely withers/dies►.
7Similarly, because of the sins that we have committed, you become angry with us; you terrify us and then you destroy us.
8It is as though you place our sins in front of you, you spread out even our secret sins where you can see them.
9Because you are angry with us, you cause our lives to end; the years that we live pass as quickly as a sigh does.
10People live for only 70 years; but if they are strong, some of them live for 80 years. But even during good years we have much pain and troubles; our lives soon end, and we die EUP.
11No one RHQ has fully experienced the powerful things you can do to them when you are angry with them, and people are not afraid that you will greatly punish them because of your being angry with them.
12So teach/help us to realize that we live for only a short time in order that we may use our time wisely.
13Yahweh, how long will you be angry with us? Pity us who serve you.
14Each morning show us that your faithfully loving us is enough for us in order that we may shout joyfully and be happy for the rest of our lives.
