Psalm 90

1  Lord, you have been our refuge ♦︎
   from one generation to another.
2  Before the mountains were brought forth,
      or the earth and the world were formed, ♦︎
   from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3  You turn us back to dust and say: ♦︎
   ‘Turn back, O children of earth.’
4  For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday, ♦︎
   which passes like a watch in the night.
5  You sweep them away like a dream; ♦︎
   they fade away suddenly like the grass.
6  In the morning it is green and flourishes; ♦︎
   in the evening it is dried up and withered.
13  Turn again, O Lord; how long will you delay? ♦︎
   Have compassion on your servants.
14  Satisfy us with your loving-kindness in the morning, ♦︎
   that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15  Give us gladness for the days you have afflicted us, ♦︎
   and for the years in which we have seen adversity.
16  Show your servants your works, ♦︎
   and let your glory be over their children.
17  May the gracious favour of the Lord our God be upon us; ♦︎
   prosper our handiwork; O prosper the work of our hands.

44 Moses came and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people, he and Joshua^* son of Nun. ⁴⁵When Moses had finished reciting all these words to all Israel, ⁴⁶he said to them: ‘Take to heart all the words that I am giving in witness against you today; give them as a command to your children, so that they may diligently observe all the words of this law. ⁴⁷This is no trifling matter for you, but rather your very life; through it you may live long in the land that you are crossing over the Jordan to possess.’

39 ‘You search the scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that testify on my behalf. ⁴⁰Yet you refuse to come to me to have life. ⁴¹I do not accept glory from human beings. ⁴²But I know that you do not have the love of God in^* you. ⁴³I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; if another comes in his own name, you will accept him. ⁴⁴How can you believe when you accept glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the one who alone is God? ⁴⁵Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; your accuser is Moses, on whom you have set your hope. ⁴⁶If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. ⁴⁷But if you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?’
