2 Before athe mountains were born
Or You bbrought forth the earth and the world,
Even cfrom everlasting to everlasting, You are God.
3 You aturn man back into dust
And say, “Return, O sons of men.”
4 For aa thousand years in Your sight
Are like byesterday when it passes by,
Or as a cwatch in the night.
5 You ahave swept them away like a flood, they bfall asleep;
In the morning they are like cgrass which sprouts anew.
6 In the morning it ablossoms and sprouts anew;
Toward evening it bwithers away and cdries up.
