Psalms 39

1 ♥ 📝 F or 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.

2 ♥ 📝 I was dumb^H481 with silence,^H1747 I held my peace,^H2814 even from good;^H2896 And my sorrow^H3511 was stirred.^H5916

3 ♥ 📝 My 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

4 ♥ 📝 Jehovah,^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.

5 ♥ 📝 Behold, 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 H5542}

6 ♥ 📝 [Surely 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.

7 ♥ 📝 And now, Lord,^H136 what wait^H6960 I for? My hope^H8431 is in thee.

8 ♥ 📝 Deliver^H5337 me from all my transgressions:^H6588 Make^H7760 me not the reproach^H2781 of the foolish.^H5036

9 ♥ 📝 I was dumb,^H481 I opened^H6605 not my mouth;^H6310 Because thou didst^H6213 it.

10 ♥ 📝 Remove^H5493 thy stroke^H5061 away^H5493 from me: I am consumed^H3615 by the blow^H8409 of thy hand.^H3027

11 ♥ 📝 When 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

12 ♥ 📝 Hear^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.

13 ♥ 📝 Oh spare^H8159 me, that I may recover strength,^H1082 Before I go hence,^H3212 and be no more.
