Psalms 90:11

Read in context

Psalms 90:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 For all our days decline in Your fury; we finish our years with a sigh.

10 The length of our days is seventy years— or eighty if we are strong— yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.

11 Who knows the power of Your anger? Your wrath matches the fear You are due.

12 So teach us to number our days, that we may present a heart of wisdom.

13 Return, O LORD! How long will it be? Have compassion on Your servants.
