Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:32 - I will punish their sin with the rod, their iniquity with flogging;
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:5 - Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death— they are like the new grass of the morning:
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:10 - Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:16 - May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 93:3 - The seas have lifted up, LORD, the seas have lifted up their voice; the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.
