- Before the mountains were born
or you brought forth the whole world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God. - A thousand years in your sight
are like a day that has just gone by,
or like a watch in the night. - Teach us to number our days,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom. - May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us;
establish the work of our hands for us—
yes, establish the work of our hands.
What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.Next verse!With image
