From Everlasting to Everlasting

A sPrayer of Moses, the tman of God.

1Lord, you have been our udwelling place1

in all generations.

2vBefore the wmountains were brought forth,

or ever you had formed the earth and the world,

xfrom everlasting to everlasting you are God.

3You return man to dust

and say, y“Return, zO children of man!”2

4For aa thousand years in your sight

are but as byesterday when it is past,

or as ca watch in the night.

5You dsweep them away as with a flood; they are like ea dream,

like fgrass that is renewed in the morning:

6in ithe morning it flourishes and is renewed;

in the evening it jfades and kwithers.

7For we are brought to an end by your anger;

by your wrath we are dismayed.

8You have lset our iniquities before you,

our msecret sins in the light of your presence.

9For all our days pass away under your wrath;

we bring our years to an end like a sigh.

10The years of our life are seventy,

or even by reason of strength eighty;

yet their span3 is but toil and trouble;

they are soon gone, and we fly away.

11Who considers the power of your anger,

and your wrath according to the fear of you?

12nSo teach us to number our days

that we may get a heart of wisdom.

13oReturn, O Lord! pHow long?

Have qpity on your servants!

14Satisfy us in the smorning with your steadfast love,

that we may trejoice and be glad all our days.

15Make us glad for as many days as you have uafflicted us,

and for as many years as we have seen evil.

16Let your vwork be shown to your servants,

and your glorious power to their children.

17Let the xfavor4 of the Lord our God be upon us,

and establish ythe work of our hands upon us;

yes, establish the work of our hands!
