The Vanity of Life.

39{For the choir director, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.} I said, " I will guard my ways, That I may not sin with my tongue; I will guard my mouth as with a muzzle, While the wicked are in my presence. "H5329H3038H4210H1732H559H8104H1870H2398H3956H8104H6310H4269H7563 2I was dumb and silent, I refrained [even] from good; And my sorrow grew worse.H481H1747H2814H2896H3511H5916 3My heart was hot within me; While I was musing the fire burned; [Then] I spoke with my tongue:H3820H2552H7130H1901H784H1197H227H1696H3956 4"LORD, make me to know my end, And what is the extent of my days, Let me know how transient I am.H3068H3045H7093H4060H3117H3045H2310 5"Behold, Thou hast made my days [as] handbreadths, And my lifetime as nothing in Thy sight, Surely every man at his best is a mere breath. Selah.H5414H3117H2947H2465H3605H120H5324H3605H1892H5542 6"Surely every man walks about as a phantom; Surely they make an uproar for nothing; He amasses [riches], and does not know who will gather them.H376H1980H6754H1993H1892H6651H3045H622 7"And now, Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in Thee.H136H6960H8431 8"Deliver me from all my transgressions; Make me not the reproach of the foolish.H5337H6588H7760H2781H5036 9"I have become dumb, I do not open my mouth, Because it is Thou who hast done [it.]H481H6605H6310H6213 10"Remove Thy plague from me; Because of the opposition of Thy hand, I am perishing.H5493H5061H5493H3615H8409H3027 11"With reproofs Thou dost chasten a man for iniquity; Thou dost consume as a moth what is precious to him; Surely every man is a mere breath. Selah.H8433H3256H376H5771H2530H4529H6211H120H1892H5542 12"Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry; Do not be silent at my tears; For I am a stranger with Thee, A sojourner like all my fathers.H8085H8605H3068H238H7775H2790H1832H1616H8453H1 13"Turn Thy gaze away from me, that I may smile [again], Before I depart and am no more."H8159H1082H3212
