Psalms 39:2-9

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

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

4“Lord, make me aware of my end and the number of my days so that I will know how short-lived I am.

5In fact, you have made my days just inches long, and my life span is as nothing to you. Yes, every human being stands as only a vapor.Selah

6Yes, a person goes about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they 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.

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

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