Psalms 39:1-4

1I said, “I will guard my ways That I may not sin with my tongue; I will muzzle my mouth While the wicked are in my presence.”

2I was mute and silent [before my enemies], I refrained even from good, And my distress grew worse.

3My heart was hot within me. While I was musing the fire burned; Then I spoke with my tongue:

4“Lord, let me know my [life’s] end And [to appreciate] the extent of my days; Let me know how frail I am [how transient is my stay here].
