6. In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7. For we are consumed in thine anger, and in thy wrath are we troubled.
8. Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9. For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we bring our years to an end as a tale that is told.
10. The days of our years are threescore years and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore years; yet is their pride but labour and sorrow; for it is soon gone, and we fly away.
11. Who knoweth the power of thine anger, and thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto thee?
12. So teach us to number our days, that we may get us an heart of wisdom.
13. Return, O Lord; how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14. O satisfy us in the morning with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
