Psalm 90 TLV Get a Heart of Wisdom

¹ A prayer of Moses the man of God.
My Lord, You have been our dwelling
    from generation to generation.
² Before the mountains were born,
or You gave birth to the earth and the world,
even from everlasting to everlasting,
    You are God!
³ You turn mankind back to dust, saying,
“Return, children of Adam!”
⁴ For a thousand years in Your sight
are like a day just passing by,
or like a watch in the night.
⁵ You sweep them away in their sleep.
In the morning they are like sprouting grass—
⁶ in the morning it flourishes and springs up,
by evening it withers and dries up.

⁷ For we are consumed by Your anger
and terrified by Your wrath.
⁸ You have set our iniquities before You,
our secret sins in the light of Your presence.
⁹ For all our days have passed away under Your wrath.
We spent our years like a sigh.
¹⁰ The span of our years is seventy
—or with strength, eighty—
yet at best they are trouble and sorrow.
For they are soon gone, and we fly away.
¹¹ Who knows the power of Your anger?
Your fury leads to awe of you.

¹² So teach us to number our days,
so that we may get a heart of wisdom.
¹³ Relent, Adonai! How long?
Have compassion on Your servants.
¹⁴ Satisfy us in the morning with Your love,
so we may sing for joy
and be glad all our days.
¹⁵ Gladden us for as many days as You have humbled us,
as many years as we have seen misery.
¹⁶ Let Your work appear to Your servants,
and Your splendor on their children.
¹⁷ Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us.
Establish the work of our hands for us—
yes, establish the work of our hands.
