Psalms 90:10 Context
8Thou hast set our iniquities before thee: our secret sinnes in the light of thy countenance. 9For all our dayes are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our yeeres as a tale that is told. 10The dayes of our yeres are threescore yeeres and ten, and if by reason of strength they be fourescore yeeres, yet is their strength labour and sorrow: for it is soone cut off, and we flie away. 11Who knoweth the power of thine anger? euen according to thy feare, so is thy wrath. 12So teach vs to number our daies: that wee may apply our hearts vnto wisedome.
