4. A thousand years in your sightare like a day that has just gone by,or like a watch in the night.
5. Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death –they are like the new grass of the morning:
6. In the morning it springs up new,but by evening it is dry and withered.
7. We are consumed by your angerand terrified by your indignation.
8. You have set our iniquities before you,our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9. All our days pass away under your wrath;we finish our years with a moan.
