6. In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7. For we are consumed by thy anger, and by 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 spend our years, as a tale that is told.
10. The days of our years are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11. Who knoweth the power of thy anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts to wisdom.
