Psalm 90:7

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

For by thine anger we're consum'd, thy wrath makes us afraid.

See the chapter Copy

When with rebukes thou dost correct man for iniquity, Thou wastes his beauty like a moth: sure each man's vanity.

Who knows the power of thy wrath? according to thy fear

For in thine anger all our days do pass on to an end; And as a tale that hath been told, so we our years do spend.

In wrath consume them, them consume, that so they may not be: And that in Jacob God doth rule to th' earth's ends let them see.

Wherefore their days in vanity he did consume and waste; And by his wrath their wretched years away in trouble past.
