Psalms 39:7-13

7“And now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You.

8Deliver me from all my transgressions; Do not make me the reproach of the foolish.

9I was mute, I did not open my mouth, Because it was You who did it.

10Remove Your plague from me; I am consumed by the blow of Your hand.

11When with rebukes You correct man for iniquity, You make his beauty melt away like a moth; Surely every man is vapor. Selah

12“Hear my prayer, O Lord, And give ear to my cry; Do not be silent at my tears; For I am a stranger with You, A sojourner, as all my fathers were.

13Remove Your gaze from me, that I may regain strength, Before I go away and am no more.”
