Psalms 90

1 A prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, You have been our dwelling place through all generations.

1 主啊， 你是我们世世代代的居所。

2 Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.

2 群山尚未诞生， 大地和世界还未形成， 你就是上帝，直到永永远远。

3 You return man to dust, saying, “Return, O sons of mortals.”

3 你叫人归回尘土， 说：“世人啊，归回尘土吧。”

4 For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes, or a watch of the night.

4 在你眼中， 千年如刚过的昨日，又如夜里的一更。

5 You sweep them away in their sleep; they are like the new grass of the morning—

5 你像急流一般把世人冲走， 叫他们如梦消逝。 他们像清晨的嫩草，

6 in the morning it springs up new, but by evening it fades and withers.

6 清晨还生机盎然， 傍晚就凋谢枯萎。

7 For we are consumed by Your anger and terrified by Your wrath.

7 我们被你的怒气消灭， 你的愤怒使我们颤抖。

8 You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your presence.

8 你知道我们的罪恶， 我们隐秘的罪显露在你面前。

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

9 我们活在你的烈怒之下， 一生就像一声叹息飞逝而去。

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.

10 我们一生七十岁， 强壮的可活八十岁， 但人生最美好的时光也充满劳苦和愁烦， 生命转瞬即逝， 我们便如飞而去。

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

11 谁明白你愤怒的威力？ 谁明白你的烈怒而给你当得的敬畏呢？

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

12 求你教导我们明白人生有限， 使我们做有智慧的人。

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

13 耶和华啊，我还要等候多久？ 求你回转，怜悯你的仆人。

14 Satisfy us in the morning with Your loving devotion, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.

14 求你在清晨以慈爱来满足我们， 使我们一生欢喜歌唱。

15 Make us glad for as many days as You have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.

15 你使我们先前经历了多少苦难和不幸的岁月， 求你也赐给我们多少欢乐的岁月。

16 May Your work be shown to Your servants, and Your splendor to their children.

16 求你让仆人们看见你的作为， 让我们的后代看见你的威荣。

17 May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish for us the work of our hands—yes, establish the work of our hands!

17 愿主，我们的上帝恩待我们， 使我们所做的亨通， 使我们所做的亨通。
