6which blossoms and sprouts in the morning, but by evening is cut and withered.
7For your anger consumes us, the heat of your wrath confounds us.
8Our sins you have set before you, our secrets in the light of your face.
9For through your wrath our days are declining, we bring our years to an end as a sigh.
10The span of our life is seventy years, or, if we are strong, maybe eighty; yet is their breadth but empty toil, for swiftly they go, and we fly away.
11Who lays to heart the power of your anger? Or who stands in reverent awe of your wrath?
12O teach us to count our days so our minds may learn wisdom.
13Return, O Lord; why so long? Relent on your servants.
14Grant us your love to the full in the morning, that all our days we may shout for joy.
15Make us glad for the days you have humbled us, for the evil years we have seen.
16Let your servants see you in action, show your majesty to their children.
