Thou hast set our iniquities before thee,
Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
For all our days are passed away in thy wrath:
We bring our years to an end as [a]a sigh.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten,
Or even by reason of strength fourscore years;
Yet is their pride but labor and sorrow;
For it is soon gone, and we fly away.

  1. Psalm 90:9 Or, a sound

You have set our iniquities before you,

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)
