TranslationPsalm 89In the morning he shall pass away like grass LORD you are made/ A REFUGE for us:/ from generation to/ generation./ Before the mountains/ were made or the earth and the world/ was formed: from eternity/ to eternity you are god./ Do not turn man away to be brought low:/ and you have said be converted you children of men./ Because a thousand years before your eyes:/ are as yesterday that is past/ And their years shall be as a watch in the night: things that are counted nothing./ In the morning he shall pass away like grass:/ in the morning he shall flourish and pass away:/ and in the evening he shall fall grow dry and wither./ Because we have fainted away in your anger:/ and we are alarmed in your rage./ You have put our injustices before your sight:/ |
