Psalm 90:7-11

King James Version

⁷For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

⁸Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.

⁹For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.

¹⁰The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

¹¹Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.

New International Version

⁷We are consumed by your anger
    and terrified by your indignation.
⁸You have set our iniquities before you,
    our secret sins^(A) in the light of your presence.^(B)
⁹All our days pass away under your wrath;
    we finish our years with a moan.^(C)
¹⁰Our days may come to seventy years,^(D)
    or eighty,^(E) if our strength endures;
yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,^(F)
    for they quickly pass, and we fly away.^(G)
¹¹If only we knew the power of your anger!
    Your wrath^(H) is as great as the fear that is your due.^(I)

Psalm 90:7-11

New King James Version

⁷For we have been consumed by Your anger,
And by Your wrath we are terrified.
⁸^(A)You have set our iniquities before You,
Our ^(B)secret sins in the light of Your countenance.
⁹For all our days have passed away in Your wrath;
We finish our years like a sigh.
¹⁰The days of our lives are seventy years;
And if by reason of strength they are eighty years,
Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow;
For it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
¹¹Who knows the power of Your anger?
For as the fear of You, so is Your wrath.
