5. Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sheinah (sleep); in the boker they are like khatzir (grass) which withereth.
6. In the boker it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the erev it is cut down, and drieth up.
7. For we are consumed by Thine anger, and by Thy chemah are we troubled.
8. Thou hast set avonoteinu before Thee, our secret sins in the ohr of Thy countenance.
9. For kol yameinu are passed away in Thy evrah (fury); we spend shaneinu (our years) like a sigh.
10. The yamim of shnoteinu (our years, life) are threescore shanah and ten; and if by reason of gevurot they are fourscore shanah, yet is their boast amal (trouble, toil) and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11. Who has da'as of the oz (power) of Thine anger? Thy evrah is as great as Thy yirah (fear of, reverence owed G-d).
12. So teach us to number yameinu, that we may apply levav unto chochmah.
13. Shuvah, Hashem. Ad mosai? Have compassion on Thy avadim.
