Psalm 90
90:1 «A
Prayer of Moses
a the man of God.»
Lord, thou hast been our
b dwelling
place in all generations.
(
a) Thus the Scripture refers to the prophets.
(
b) You have been as a house and defence to us in
all our troubles and travels now this four hundred years.
90:2 Before the
c
mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world,
even from everlasting to everlasting, thou [art] God.
(
c) You have chosen us to be your people before
the foundations of the world were laid.
90:3 Thou
d
turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
(
d) Moses by lamenting the frailty and shortness
of man's life moves God to pity.
90:4 e For a
thousand years in thy sight [are but] as yesterday when it is past, and [as] a
watch in the night.
(
e) Though man thinks his life is long, which is
indeed most short, yet though it were a thousand years, yet in God's sight
it is as nothing, and as the watch that lasts only three hours.
90:5 Thou
f
carriest them away as with a flood; they are [as] a sleep: in the morning [they
are] like grass [which] groweth up.
(
f) You take them away suddenly as with a flood.
90:7 For we are
g
consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
(
g) You called us by the rods to consider the
storms of our life and for our sins you shorten our days.
90:9 For all our days are
passed away in thy wrath: we
h spend our
years as a tale [that is told].
(
h) Our days are not only short but miserable as
our sins daily provoke your wrath.
90:10 The days of our years [are] threescore years
and ten; and if by reason of strength [they be]
i
fourscore years, yet [is] their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut
off, and we fly away.
(
i) Meaning according to the common state of
life.
90:11 k Who
knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, [so is] thy wrath.
(
k) If man's life for the shortness of it is
miserable, it is even more so if your wrath is on it, as they who fear you
only know.
90:12 So teach [us] to number our days, that we may
apply [our] hearts unto
l wisdom.
(
l) Which is by considering the shortness of our
life, and by meditating the heavenly joys.
90:13 Return, O LORD,
m
how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
(
m) Meaning, will you be angry?
90:16 n
Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their
o
children.
(
n) Even your mercy, which is the chiefest work.
(
o) As God's promises belong well to their
poverty, as to them, so Moses prays for the posterity.
90:17 And let the
p
beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and
q
establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands
establish thou it.
(
p) Meaning, that is was obscured when he ceases
to do good to his Church.
(
q) For unless you guide us with your Holy
Spirit, our enterprises cannot succeed.
