Verse 16 is found in chapter 90 of Psalms. Psalm 90, traditionally attributed to Moses, contemplates human mortality in contrast with God’s eternity. Human life is compared to a night watch, grass that sprouts and disappears, and days that pass quickly. Awareness of death leads to a request for wisdom: learning to number the days. The conclusion asks God to establish human work, recognizing that the permanence of any labor depends on his favor.

Zeige deinen Knechten deine Werke und deine Ehre ihren Kindern.
Aparezca en tus siervos tu obra, Y tu gloria sobre sus hijos.
Que tus siervos vean tu obra, y sus hijos, tu majestad.
Que ton oeuvre se manifeste à tes serviteurs, Et ta gloire sur leurs enfants!
Apparisca l’opera tua verso i tuoi servitori, E la tua gloria verso i lor figliuoli.
Apareça a tua obra aos teus servos, e a tua glória sobre seus filhos.
願你的作為向你僕人們顯現, 願你的榮耀向他們子孫顯明。
