Tehillim 90

It is commonly accepted that this psalm was originally composed by Moshe Rabbeinu and later found by David HaMelech who incorporated it into Sefer Tehillim. There are eleven such psalms that were composed by Moshe Rabbeinu. Each perek is associated with one of the eleven tribes that Moshe Rabbeinu blessed before he died (Shevet Shimon is missing b/c they were instrumental in the deaths of thousands of Jews during the incident with the Midyanite women).

Reuven is the tribe that is associated with this first psalm. The theme of this psalm can be said to be one of repentance. The Midrash says that Reuven was the first person to show the world that there is a concept of "Teshuva Gemura" – complete Teshuva.

It is said that this prayer was composed on the day that the Mishkan, the Tabernacle, was completed.

Hence, Moshe ends the perek (v.17) with a prayer that whenever we form or make something, may Hashem's blessing descend upon it.

Segula for this perek: For recovery from an illness. For an attack of a wild animal. (From the Sefer Shimush Tehillim attributed to Rav Hai Gaon (969 -1038).)

פרק צ'

א.  תְּפִלָּה לְמֹשֶׁה אִישׁ הָאֱלֹהִים אֲדֹנָי מָעוֹן אַתָּה הָיִיתָ לָּנוּ בְּדֹר וָדֹר:

ב.  בְּטֶרֶם | הָרִים יֻלָּדוּ וַתְּחוֹלֵל אֶרֶץ וְתֵבֵל וּמֵעוֹלָם עַד עוֹלָם אַתָּה אֵל:

ג.  תָּשֵׁב אֱנוֹשׁ עַד דַּכָּא וַתֹּאמֶר שׁוּבוּ בְנֵי אָדָם:

ד.  כִּי אֶלֶף שָׁנִים בְּעֵינֶיךָ כְּיוֹם אֶתְמוֹל כִּי יַעֲבֹר וְאַשְׁמוּרָה בַלָּיְלָה:

ה.  זְרַמְתָּם שֵׁנָה יִהְיוּ בַּבֹּקֶר כֶּחָצִיר יַחֲלֹף:

ו.  בַּבֹּקֶר יָצִיץ וְחָלָף לָעֶרֶב יְמוֹלֵל וְיָבֵשׁ:

ז.  כִּי כָלִינוּ בְאַפֶּךָ וּבַחֲמָתְךָ נִבְהָלְנוּ:

ח.  שַׁתָּה (כתיב שַׁתָּ) עֲו‍ֹנֹתֵינוּ לְנֶגְדֶּךָ עֲלֻמֵנוּ לִמְאוֹר פָּנֶיךָ:

ט.  כִּי כָל יָמֵינוּ פָּנוּ בְעֶבְרָתֶךָ כִּלִּינוּ שָׁנֵינוּ כְמוֹ הֶגֶה:

י.  יְמֵי שְׁנוֹתֵינוּ | בָּהֶם שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה וְאִם בִּגְבוּרֹת | שְׁמוֹנִים שָׁנָה וְרָהְבָּם עָמָל וָאָוֶן כִּי גָז חִישׁ וַנָּעֻפָה:

יא.  מִי יוֹדֵעַ עֹז אַפֶּךָ וּכְיִרְאָתְךָ עֶבְרָתֶךָ:

יב.  לִמְנוֹת יָמֵינוּ כֵּן הוֹדַע וְנָבִא לְבַב חָכְמָה:

יג.  שׁוּבָה יְהֹוָה עַד מָתָי וְהִנָּחֵם עַל עֲבָדֶיךָ:

יד.  שַׂבְּעֵנוּ בַבֹּקֶר חַסְדֶּךָ וּנְרַנְּנָה וְנִשְׂמְחָה בְּכָל יָמֵינוּ:

טו.  שַׂמְּחֵנוּ כִּימוֹת עִנִּיתָנוּ שְׁנוֹת רָאִינוּ רָעָה:

טז.  יֵרָאֶה אֶל עֲבָדֶיךָ פָּעֳלֶךָ וַהֲדָרְךָ עַל בְּנֵיהֶם:

יז.  וִיהִי נֹעַם | אֲדֹנָי אֱלֹהֵינוּ עָלֵינוּ וּמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֵינוּ כּוֹנְנָה עָלֵינוּ וּמַעֲשֵׂה יָדֵינוּ כּוֹנְנֵהוּ:

1.  A prayer of Moses, the man of God. my Lord, You have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.

2.  Before the mountains were born, and You brought forth the earth and the inhabited world, and from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.

3.  You bring man to the crushing point, and You say, "Return, O sons of men."

4.  For a thousand years are in Your eyes like yesterday, which passed, and a watch in the night.

5.  You carry them away as a flood; they are like a sleep; in the morning, like grass it passes away.

6.  In the morning, it blossoms and passes away; in the evening, it is cut off and withers.

7.  For we perish from Your wrath, and from Your anger we are dismayed.

8.  You have placed our iniquities before You, [the sins of] our youth before the light of Your countenance.

9.  For all our days have passed away in Your anger; we have consumed our years as a murmur.

10.  The days of our years because of them are seventy years, and if with increase, eighty years; but their pride is toil and pain, for it passes quickly and we fly away.

11.  Who knows the might of Your wrath, and according to Your fear is Your anger.

12.  So teach the number of our days, so that we shall acquire a heart of wisdom.

13.  Return, O Lord, how long? And repent about Your servants.

14.  Satiate us in the morning with Your loving-kindness, and let us sing praises and rejoice with all our days.

15.  Cause us to rejoice according to the days that You afflicted us, the years that we saw evil.

16.  May Your works appear to Your servants, and Your beauty to their sons.

17.  And may the pleasantness of the Lord our God be upon us, and the work of our hands establish for us, and the work of our hands establish it.
