1 A prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, You have been our dwelling place through all generations.
1 Oración de Moisés varón de Dios. SEÑOR, tú nos has sido refugio en generación y en generación.
1 A Prayer by Moses, the man of God. Lord, you have been our dwelling place for all generations.
2 Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.
2 Antes que naciesen los montes, y formases la tierra y el mundo, y desde el siglo y hasta el siglo, tú eres Dios.
2 Before the mountains were born, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
3 You return man to dust, saying, “Return, O sons of mortals.”
3 Vuelves al hombre hasta ser quebrantado, y dices: Convertíos, hijos de los hombres.
3 You turn man to destruction, saying, “Return, you children of men.”
4 For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes, or a watch of the night.
4 Porque mil años delante de tus ojos, son como el día de ayer, que pasó, y como una de las vigilias de la noche.
4 For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.
5 You whisk them away in their sleep; they are like the new grass of the morning—
5 Háceslos pasar como avenida de aguas; son como sueño; como la hierba que crece en la mañana:
5 You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.
6 in the morning it springs up new, but by evening it fades and withers.
6 En la mañana florece y crece; á la tarde es cortada, y se seca.
6 In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry.
7 For we are consumed by Your anger and terrified by Your wrath.
7 Porque con tu furor somos consumidos, y con tu ira somos conturbados.
7 For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath.
8 You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your presence.
8 Pusiste nuestras maldades delante de ti, nuestros yerros á la luz de tu rostro.
8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9 For all our days decline in Your fury; we finish our years with a sigh.
9 Porque todos nuestros días declinan á causa de tu ira; acabamos nuestros años como un pensamiento.
9 For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh.
10 The length of our days is seventy years— or eighty if we are strong— yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
10 Los días de nuestra edad son setenta años; que si en los más robustos son ochenta años, con todo su fortaleza es molestia y trabajo; porque es cortado presto, y volamos.
10 The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.
11 Who knows the power of Your anger? Your wrath matches the fear You are due.
11 ¿Quién conoce la fortaleza de tu ira, y tu indignación según que debes ser temido?
11 Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may present a heart of wisdom.
12 Enséñanos de tal modo á contar nuestros días, que traigamos al corazón sabiduría.
12 So teach us to count our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13 Return, O LORD! How long will it be? Have compassion on Your servants.
13 Vuélvete, oh Jehová: ¿hasta cuándo? y aplácate para con tus siervos.
13 Relent, Yahweh! How long? Have compassion on your servants!
14 Satisfy us in the morning with Your loving devotion, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
14 Sácianos presto de tu misericordia: y cantaremos y nos alegraremos todos nuestros días.
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Make us glad for as many days as You have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
15 Alégranos conforme á los días que nos afligiste, y los años que vimos mal.
15 Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
16 May Your work be shown to Your servants, and Your splendor to their children.
16 Aparezca en tus siervos tu obra, y tu gloria sobre sus hijos.
16 Let your work appear to your servants, your glory to their children.
17 May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish for us the work of our hands— yes, establish the work of our hands!
17 Y sea la luz de Jehová nuestro Dios sobre nosotros: y ordena en nosotros la obra de nuestras manos, la obra de nuestras manos confirma.
17 Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us. Establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Understand, beloved, this Psalm, which I am about to explain, by the grace of God, of our hope in the Lord Jesus Christ, and be of good cheer, because He who promised, will fulfil all, as He has fulfilled much: for it is not our own merit, but His mercy, that gives us confidence in Him.

But that discrepancy of numbers which is found to exist between our own and the …

Or if even this is so (for time flies, and a thousand years are in God's sight as one day, or as a watch in the night,) yet we cannot believe that He intended any such meaning on this occasion, especially as He went on to say, "Ye shall seek me, and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I …
