Psalm 39:7

⁵Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.Behold, you have made my days hand widths. My lifetime is as nothing before you. Surely every man stands as a breath.”

⁶Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.“Surely every man walks like a shadow. Surely they busy themselves in vain. He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.

⁷And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.Now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in you.

⁸Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.Deliver me from all my transgressions. Don’t make me the reproach of the foolish.

⁹I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.I was mute. I didn’t open my mouth, because you did it.
