7We are burned up by the heat of your passion, and troubled by your wrath.
8You have put our evil doings before you, our secret sins in the light of your face.
9For all our days have gone by in your wrath; our years come to an end like a breath.
10The measure of our life is seventy years; and if through strength it may be eighty years, its pride is only trouble and sorrow, for it comes to an end and we are quickly gone.
11Who has knowledge of the power of your wrath, or who takes note of the weight of your passion?
12So give us knowledge of the number of our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom.
13Come back, O Lord; how long? let your purpose for your servants be changed.
