9. For all our days have faded away, and at your wrath, we have fainted. Our years will be considered to be like a spider's web.
10. The days of our years in them are seventy years. But in the powerful, they are eighty years, and more of these are with hardship and sorrow. For mildness has overwhelmed us, and we shall be corrected.
11. Who knows the power of your wrath? And, before fear, can your wrath
12. be numbered? So make known your right hand, along with men learned in heart, in wisdom.
13. Return, O Lord, how long? And may you be persuaded on behalf of your servants.
14. We were filled in the morning with your mercy, and we exulted and delighted all our days.
15. We have been rejoicing, because of the days in which you humbled us, because of the years in which we saw evils.
16. Look down upon your servants and upon their works, and direct their sons.
17. And may the splendor of the Lord our God be upon us. And so, direct the works of our hands over us; direct even the work of our hands.
