A Prayer of Moses, the man of God.
1. The compassionate power of divine love (90:1-12)
2. The compassionate nature of divine love (90:13-17)
Moses sings of the frailty of man, and the shortness of life, contrasting therewith the eternity of God, and founding thereon earnest appeals for compassion.
Psalm 90:1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place
in all generations.
Psalm 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever You had formed the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting You are God.
Psalm 90:3 You return man to dust
and say, Return, O children of man!Psalm 90:4 For a thousand years in Your sight
are but as yesterday when it is past,
or as a watch in the night.
Psalm 90:5 You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream,
like grass that is renewed in the morning:
Psalm 90:6 in the morning it flourishes and is renewed;
in the evening it fades and withers.
Psalm 90:8 You have set our iniquities before You,
our secret sins in the light of Your presence.
Psalm 90:9 For all our days pass away under Your wrath;
we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
Psalm 90:10 The years of our life are seventy,
or even by reason of strength eighty;
yet their span is but toil and trouble;
they are soon gone, and we fly away.
Psalm 90:12 So teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:13 Return, O LORD! How long? Have pity on Your servants!
Psalm 90:14 Satisfy us in the morning with Your steadfast love,
that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
Psalm 90:15 Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, and for as many years as we have seen evil.
Psalm 90:16 Let your work be shown to Your servants,
and Your glorious power to their children."
