Psalm 90:7-11
New International Version
7 We are consumed by your anger
and terrified by your indignation.
8 You have set our iniquities before you,
our secret sins(A) in the light of your presence.(B)
9 All our days pass away under your wrath;
we finish our years with a moan.(C)
10 Our days may come to seventy years,(D)
or eighty,(E) if our strength endures;
yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,(F)
for they quickly pass, and we fly away.(G)
11 If only we knew the power of your anger!
Your wrath(H) is as great as the fear that is your due.(I)
Psalm 90:7-11
King James Version
7 For we are consumed by thine 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 threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
