- 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.
Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.
