    5You sweep them away like a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that springs up in the morning—

    6In the morning it flourishes and grows, but by evening it withers and dries up.

    7We are consumed by your anger, and terrified by your wrath.

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

    9All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a sigh.

    10The span of our life is seventy years—or eighty, if we have strength; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.

    11Who knows the power of your anger? For your wrath is as great as the fear that is due you.

    12Teach us to number our days carefully, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

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