1For the Chief Musician, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. I said^H559, I will take heed^H8104 to my ways^H1870, That I sin^H2398 not with my tongue^H3956: I will keep^H8104 my mouth^H6310 with a bridle^H4269, While the wicked^H7563 is before me. 2I was dumb^H481 with silence^H1747, I held my peace^H2814, even from good^H2896; And my sorrow^H3511 was stirred^H5916. 3My heart^H3820 was hot^H2552 within^H7130 me; While I was musing^H1901 the fire^H784 burned^H1197: Then^H227 spake^H1696 I with my tongue^H3956: 4Jehovah^H3068, make me to know^H3045 mine end^H7093, And the measure^H4060 of my days^H3117, what it is; Let me know^H3045 how frail^H2310 I am. 5Behold, thou hast made^H5414 my days^H3117 as handbreadths^H2947; And my life-time^H2465 is as nothing before thee: Surely every^H3605 man^H120 at his best estate^H5324 is altogether^H3605 vanity^H1892. Selah 6Surely every man^H376 walketh^H1980 in a vain show^H6754; Surely they are disquieted^H1993 in vain^H1892: He heapeth up^H6651 riches, and knoweth^H3045 not who shall gather^H622 them. 7And now, Lord^H136, what wait^H6960 I for? My hope^H8431 is in thee. 8Deliver^H5337 me from all my transgressions^H6588: Make^H7760 me not the reproach^H2781 of the foolish^H5036. 9I was dumb^H481, I opened^H6605 not my mouth^H6310; Because thou didst^H6213 it. 10Remove^H5493 thy stroke^H5061 away^H5493 from me: I am consumed^H3615 by the blow^H8409 of thy hand^H3027. 11When thou with rebukes^H8433 dost correct^H3256 man^H376 for iniquity^H5771, Thou makest his beauty^H2530 to consume away^H4529 like a moth^H6211: Surely every man^H120 is vanity^H1892. Selah^H5542 12Hear^H8085 my prayer^H8605, O Jehovah^H3068, and give ear^H238 unto my cry^H7775; Hold not thy peace^H2790 at my tears^H1832: For I am a stranger^H1616 with thee, A sojourner^H8453, as all my fathers^H1 were. 13Oh spare^H8159 me, that I may recover strength^H1082, Before I go hence^H3212, and be no more.
