The Incomparable Power of the Creator

5

Things that are counted nothing, shall their years be.

6

In the morning man shall grow up like grass; in the morning he shall flourish and pass away: in the evening he shall fall, grow dry, and wither.

7

For in thy wrath we have fainted away: and are troubled in thy indignation.

8

Thou hast set our iniquities before thy eyes: our life in the light of thy countenance.

9

For all our days are spent; and in thy wrath we have fainted away. Our years shall be considered as a spider:

10

The days of our years in them are threescore and ten years. But if in the strong they be fourscore years: and what is more of them is labour and sorrow. For mildness is come upon us: and we shall be corrected.

11

Who knoweth the power of thy anger, and for thy fear

12

Can number thy wrath? So make thy right hand known: and men learned in heart, in wisdom.

13

Return, O Lord, how long? and be entreated in favour of thy servants.

14

We are filled in the morning with thy mercy: and we have rejoiced, and are delighted all our days.

15

We have rejoiced for the days in which thou hast humbled us: for the years in which we have seen evils.

16

Look upon thy servants and upon their works: and direct their children.

17

And let the brightness of the Lord our God be upon us: and direct thou the works of our hands over us; yea, the work of our hands do thou direct.
