Psalms 39 (HCSB)

Psalms Chapter 39 (HCSB)

Compare with Version:

¹ I said, “I will guard my ways so that I may not sin with my tongue; I will guard my mouth with a muzzle as long as the wicked are in my presence.” ⓐ

² I was speechless and quiet; I kept silent, even from speaking good, and my pain intensified. ⓑ

³ My heart grew hot within me; as I mused, a fire burned. ⓒ I spoke with my tongue:

⁴ “LORD, reveal to me the end of my life and the number of my days. Let me know how short-lived I am. ⓓ

⁵ You, indeed, have made my days short in length, and my life span as nothing in Your sight. Yes, every mortal man is only a vapor. ⓔ Selah

⁶ “Certainly, man walks about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they frantically rush around in vain, gathering possessions without knowing who will get them. ⓕ

⁷ Now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You. ⓖ

⁸ Deliver me from all my transgressions; do not make me the taunt of fools. ⓗ

⁹ I am speechless; I do not open my mouth because of what You have done. ⓘ

¹⁰ Remove Your torment from me; I fade away because of the force of Your hand. ⓙ

¹¹ You discipline a man with punishment for sin, consuming like a moth what is precious to him; ⓚ every man is only a vapor. ⓛ Selah

¹² “Hear my prayer, LORD, and listen to my cry for help; do not be silent at my tears. ⓜ For I am a foreigner residing with You, a temporary resident like all my fathers. ⓝ

¹³ Turn Your angry gaze from me so that I may be cheered up before I die and am gone.” ⓞ
