He asked you for life, and you gave it to him— length of days, for ever and ever.
-
Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
-
They will spend their days in prosperity, and their descendants will inherit the land.
-
One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.
-
Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days,
-
The blameless spend their days under the Lord’s care, and their inheritance will endure forever.
-
In times of disaster they will not wither; in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.
-
“Show me, Lord, my life’s end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is.
-
You have made my days a mere handbreadth; the span of my years is as nothing before you. Everyone is but a breath, even those who seem secure.

Psalm 44
For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil.
We have heard it with our ears, O God; our ancestors have told us what you did in their days, in days long ago.
-
Why should I fear when evil days come, when wicked deceivers surround me—
-
But you, God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of decay; the bloodthirsty and deceitful will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you.
-
Increase the days of the king’s life, his years for many generations.
-
In his days may the righteous flourish and prosperity abound till the moon is no more.
-
I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
-
So he ended their days in futility and their years in terror.
-
You have cut short the days of his youth; you have covered him with a mantle of shame.
-
All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a moan.
-
Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
-
Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
-
Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
-
Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble.
-
Your statutes, Lord, stand firm; holiness adorns your house for endless days.
-
you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked.
-
For forty years I was angry with that generation; I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray, and they have not known my ways.’
