2. Before the mountains were born,the earth and the world brought forth,from eternity to eternity you are God.
3. You turn humanity back into dust,saying, “Return, you children of Adam!”
4. A thousand years in your eyesare merely a day gone by,Before a watch passes in the night,
5. you wash them away;They sleep,and in the morning they sprout again like an herb.
6. In the morning it blooms only to pass away;in the evening it is wilted and withered.
7. Truly we are consumed by your anger,filled with terror by your wrath.
