Before the mountains were born Or You gave birth to the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God. | Before the mountains were brought forth or the earth and the world came into existence, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. |
For a thousand years in Your sight Are like yesterday when it passes by, Or like a watch in the night. | For to you a thousand years are like a yesterday that has passed or one of the watches of the night. |
So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom. | Teach us to comprehend how few our days are so that our hearts may be filled with wisdom. |
May the kindness of the Lord our God be upon us; And confirm for us the work of our hands; Yes, confirm the work of our hands. | May the favor of the Lord, our God, rest upon us. And may the work of our hands prosper— indeed, may the work of our hands prosper. |
