September 19: Psalms 90–95

Psalms 90–95 Psalms 90–95 (Listen) Book Four From Everlasting to Everlasting A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. 90   Lord, you have been our dwelling place1<br />    in all generations.<br />2   Before the mountains were brought forth,<br />    or ever you had formed the earth and the world,<br />    from everlasting to everlasting you are God.<br /> 3   You return man to dust<br />    and say, “Return, O children of man!”2<br />4   For a thousand years in your sight<br />    are but as yesterday when it is past,<br />    or as a watch in the night.<br /> 5   You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream,<br />    like grass that is renewed in the morning:<br />6   in the morning it flourishes and is renewed;<br />    in the evening it fades and withers.<br /> 7   For we are brought to an end by your anger;<br />    by your wrath we are dismayed.<br />
