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.
12
So teach
us
to number our days, that we may apply
our
hearts unto
wisdom.
13
Return, O L
ORD
, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14
O satisfy
us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15
Make us glad according
to the days
wherein
thou hast afflicted us,
and
the years
wherein
we have seen evil.
16
Let thy work
appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.
17
And let the beauty of the L
ORD
our
God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands
establish thou it.
CHAPTER 91
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2
I will say of the L
ORD
,
He is
my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
and
from the noisome pestilence.
4
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth
shall
be thy
shield and buckler.
5
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;
nor
for the arrow
that
flieth by day;
6
Nor
for the pestilence
that
walketh in darkness;
nor
for the destruction
that
wasteth at
noonday.
7
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand;
but
it shall not come
nigh thee.
8
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9
Because thou hast made the L
ORD
,
which is
my refuge,
even
the most High, thy habitation;
10
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12
They shall bear thee up in
their
hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample
under feet.
14
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high,
because he hath known my name.
15
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I
will be
with him in trouble; I will deliver
him, and honour him.
16
With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
