Verse 3 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.
