Mazmur 90
Mazmur · Psalms
1Doa Musa, abdi Allah. Tuhan, Engkaulah tempat perteduhan kami turun-temurun.
1Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
2Sebelum gunung-gunung dilahirkan, dan bumi dan dunia diperanakkan, bahkan dari selama-lamanya sampai selama-lamanya Engkaulah Allah.
2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3Engkau mengembalikan manusia kepada debu, dan berkata: "Kembalilah, hai anak-anak manusia!"
3You return man to dust and say, "Return, O children of man!"
4Sebab di mata-Mu seribu tahun sama seperti hari kemarin, apabila berlalu, atau seperti suatu giliran jaga di waktu malam.
4For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night.
5Engkau menghanyutkan manusia; mereka seperti mimpi, seperti rumput yang bertumbuh,
5You sweep them away as with a flood; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning:
6di waktu pagi berkembang dan bertumbuh, di waktu petang lisut dan layu.
6in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers.
7Sungguh, kami habis lenyap karena murka-Mu, dan karena kehangatan amarah-Mu kami terkejut.
7For we are brought to an end by your anger; by your wrath we are dismayed.
8Engkau menaruh kesalahan kami di hadapan-Mu, dan dosa kami yang tersembunyi dalam cahaya wajah-Mu.
8You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9Sungguh, segala hari kami berlalu karena gemas-Mu, kami menghabiskan tahun-tahun kami seperti keluh.
9For all our days pass away under your wrath; we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
10Masa hidup kami tujuh puluh tahun dan jika kami kuat, delapan puluh tahun, dan kebanggaannya adalah kesukaran dan penderitaan; sebab berlalunya buru-buru, dan kami melayang lenyap.
10The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty; yet their span is but toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away.
11Siapakah yang mengenal kekuatan murka-Mu dan takut kepada gemas-Mu?
11Who considers the power of your anger, and your wrath according to the fear of you?
12Ajarlah kami menghitung hari-hari kami sedemikian, hingga kami beroleh hati yang bijaksana.
12So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.
13Kembalilah, ya TUHAN--berapa lama lagi? --dan sayangilah hamba-hamba-Mu!
13Return, O LORD! How long? Have pity on your servants!
14Kenyangkanlah kami di waktu pagi dengan kasih setia-Mu, supaya kami bersorak-sorai dan bersukacita semasa hari-hari kami.
14Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15Buatlah kami bersukacita seimbang dengan hari-hari Engkau menindas kami, seimbang dengan tahun-tahun kami mengalami celaka.
15Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, and for as many years as we have seen evil.
16Biarlah kelihatan kepada hamba-hamba-Mu perbuatan-Mu, dan semarak-Mu kepada anak-anak mereka.
16Let your work be shown to your servants, and your glorious power to their children.
17Kiranya kemurahan Tuhan, Allah kami, atas kami, dan teguhkanlah perbuatan tangan kami, ya, perbuatan tangan kami, teguhkanlah itu.
17Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands!
