For all our days pass away under your wrath;
    our years come to an end[a] like a sigh.
10 The days of our life are seventy years,
    or perhaps eighty, if we are strong;
even then their span[b] is only toil and trouble;
    they are soon gone, and we fly away.

11 Who considers the power of your anger?
    Your wrath is as great as the fear that is due to you.
