SEV Biblia, Chapter 90:10
Los días de nuestra edad son setenta años; y de los más valientes, ochenta años, y su fortaleza es molestia y trabajo; porque es cortado presto, y volamos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 89:10
Verse 10. Threescore years and ten ] See the note on the title of this Psalm. This Psalm could not have been written by Moses, because the term of human life was much more extended when he flourished than eighty years at the most. Even in David's time many lived one hundred years, and the author of Ecclesiasticus, who lived after the captivity, fixed this term at one hundred years at the most (Eccles. xviii. 9;) but this was merely a general average, for even in our country we have many who exceed a hundred years. Yet is their strength labour and sorrow ] This refers to the infirmities of old age, which, to those well advanced in life, produce labour and sorrow.
It is soon cut of ] It-the body, is soon cut off.
And we fly away. ] The immortal spirit wings its way into the eternal world.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-11 - The afflictions of the saints often come from God's love; but the rebukes of sinners, and of believers for their sins, must be see coming from the displeasure of God. Secret sins are known to God, an shall be reckoned for. See the folly of those who go about to cove their sins, for they cannot do so. Our years, when gone, can no more be recalled than the words that we have spoken. Our whole life is toilsom and troublesome; and perhaps, in the midst of the years we count upon it is cut off. We are taught by all this to stand in awe. The angel that sinned know the power of God's anger; sinners in hell know it; but which of us can fully describe it? Few seriously consider it as the ought. Those who make a mock at sin, and make light of Christ, surel do not know the power of God's anger. Who among us can dwell with tha devouring fire?
