4. For an elef shanim in Thy sight are but as yom etmol (yesterday) when it is past, and as an ashmurah (watch, division of time) in the lailah.
5. Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sheinah (sleep); in the boker they are like khatzir (grass) which withereth.
6. In the boker it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the erev it is cut down, and drieth up.
7. For we are consumed by Thine anger, and by Thy chemah are we troubled.
