Psalm 90:2
Verse 2 of 17. The 90th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.
1Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

6In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
