Psalm 90
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised
BOOK IV
(Psalms 90–106)
Eternal God and Mortal Man
A prayer of Moses, the man of God.
90 Lord, you have been our refuge[a]
in every generation.(A)
2 Before the mountains were born,
before you gave birth to the earth and the world,
from eternity to eternity, you are God.(B)
3 You return mankind to the dust,
saying, ‘Return, descendants of Adam.’(C)
4 For in your sight a thousand years
are like yesterday that passes by,
like a few hours of the night.(D)
5 You end their lives;[b] they sleep.(E)
They are like grass that grows in the morning –
6 in the morning it sprouts and grows;
by the evening it withers and dries up.(F)
7 For we are consumed by your anger;
we are terrified by your wrath.(G)
8 You have set our iniquities before you,
our secret sins in the light of your presence.(H)
9 For all our days ebb away under your wrath;
we end our years like a sigh.(I)
10 Our lives last[c] for seventy years
or, if we are strong, eighty years.
Even the best of them are[d] struggle and sorrow;
indeed, they pass quickly and we fly away.(J)
11 Who understands the power of your anger?
Your wrath matches the fear that is due you.(K)
12 Teach us to number our days carefully
so that we may develop wisdom in our hearts.[e](L)
13 Lord – how long?
Turn and have compassion on your servants.(M)
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your faithful love
so that we may shout with joy and be glad all our days.(N)
15 Make us rejoice for as many days as you have humbled us,
for as many years as we have seen adversity.(O)
16 Let your work be seen by your servants,
and your splendour by their children.(P)
17 Let the favour of the Lord our God be on us;
establish for us the work of our hands –
establish the work of our hands!(Q)
詩篇 90
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
卷四:詩篇90—106
上帝與世人
上帝的僕人摩西的祈禱。
90 主啊,
你是我們世世代代的居所。
2 群山尚未誕生,
大地和世界還未形成,
從亙古到永遠,你是上帝。
3 你叫人歸回塵土,
說:「世人啊,歸回塵土吧。」
4 在你眼中,
千年如一日,又如夜裡的一更。
5 你像急流一般把世人沖走,
叫他們如夢消逝。
他們像清晨的嫩草,
6 清晨還生機盎然,
傍晚就凋謝枯萎。
7 你的怒氣使我們滅亡,
你的憤怒使我們戰抖。
8 你知道我們的罪惡,
對我們隱秘的罪瞭若指掌。
9 我們活在你的烈怒之下,
一生就像一聲歎息飛逝而去。
10 我們一生七十歲,
強壯的可活八十歲,
但人生最美好的時光也充滿勞苦和愁煩,
生命轉瞬即逝,
我們便如飛而去。
11 誰明白你憤怒的威力?
有誰因為明白你的烈怒而對你心存敬畏呢?
12 求你教導我們明白人生有限,
使我們做有智慧的人。
13 耶和華啊,我還要苦候多久呢?
求你憐憫你的僕人。
14 求你在清晨以慈愛來滿足我們,
使我們一生歡喜歌唱。
15 你使我們先前經歷了多少苦難和不幸的歲月,
求你也賜給我們多少歡樂的歲月。
16 求你讓僕人們看見你的作為,
讓我們的後代看見你的威榮。
17 願主——我們的上帝恩待我們,
使我們所做的亨通,
使我們所做的亨通。
