9. For all our days ebb away under Your wrath;we end our years like a sigh.
10. Our lives last seventy yearsor, if we are strong, eighty years.Even the best of them are struggle and sorrow;indeed, they pass quickly and we fly away.
11. Who understands the power of Your anger?Your wrath matches the fear that is due You.
12. Teach us to number our days carefullyso that we may develop wisdom in our hearts.
13. Lord — how long?Turn and have compassion on Your servants.
