1
A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations.
2
Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever You had formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
3
You turn man to destruction, And say, "Return, O children of men."
4
For a thousand years in Your sight Are like yesterday when it is past, And like a watch in the night.
5
You carry them away like a flood; They are like a sleep. In the morning they are like grass which grows up:
6
In the morning it flourishes and grows up; In the evening it is cut down and withers.
