The Book of Psalms

Chapter 39

1.

To the chief Musician, even to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

2.

I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.

3.

My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then I spoke with my tongue.

4.

LORD, make me to know my end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am.

5.

Behold, thou hast made my days as a hand-breadth; and my age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.

6.

Surely every man walketh in a vain show: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.

7.

And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.

8.

Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.

9.

I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.

10.

Remove thy stroke away from me; I am consumed by the blow of thy hand.

11.

When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.

12.

Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.

13.

O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
