Psalms 90:2
1 Lord, You have been our dwelling place through all generations.
Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.
3 You return man to dust, saying, “Return, O sons of mortals.”
4 For in Your sight a thousand years are but a day that passes, or a watch of the night.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
