7For we have failed in thine ire; and we be troubled in thy strong vengeance.
8Thou hast set or put our wicked-nesses in thy sight; our world in the lightening of thy cheer.
9For all our days have failed; and we have failed in thine ire. Our years we shall bethink upon as a spider;
10the days of our years be those seventy years. Forsooth, if fourscore or eighty years be in mighty men; and the more time of them is travail and sorrow. For mildness came above; and we shall be chastised.
11Who knew the power of thine ire; and durst number thine ire for thy dread?
12Make thy right hand so known; and make men learned in heart by wisdom.
