New King James Version

  • I Will Watch My Ways

    {To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.} I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a muzzle, while the wicked is before me.
  • Prayer for Wisdom and Forgiveness

    To the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

    I said, “I will guard my ways,
    Lest I sin with my tongue;
    I will restrain my mouth with a muzzle,
    While the wicked are before me.”
  • I was dumb with silence, I held my peace from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
  • I was mute with silence,
    I held my peace even from good;
    And my sorrow was stirred up.
  • My heart burned within me; the fire was kindled in my musing: I spoke with my tongue,
  • My heart was hot within me;
    While I was [a]musing, the fire burned.
    Then I spoke with my tongue:
  • Make me to know, Jehovah, mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: I shall know how frail I am.
  • “Lord, make me to know my end,
    And what is the measure of my days,
    That I may know how frail I am.
  • Behold, thou hast made my days [as] hand-breadths, and my lifetime is as nothing before thee; verily, every man, [even] the high placed, is altogether vanity. Selah.
  • Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths,
    And my age is as nothing before You;
    Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor. Selah
  • Verily, man walketh in a vain show; verily they are disquieted in vain; he heapeth up [riches], and knoweth not who shall gather them.
  • Surely every man walks about like a shadow;
    Surely they [b]busy themselves in vain;
    He heaps up riches,
    And does not know who will gather them.
  • And now, what wait I for, Lord? my hope is in thee.
  • “And now, Lord, what do I wait for?
    My hope is in You.
  • Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the reproach of the foolish.
  • Deliver me from all my transgressions;
    Do not make me the reproach of the foolish.
  • I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; for *thou* hast done [it].
  • I was mute, I did not open my mouth,
    Because it was You who did it.
  • Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thy hand.
  • Remove Your plague from me;
    I am consumed by the blow of Your hand.
  • When thou with rebukes dost correct a man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely, every man is vanity. Selah.
  • When with rebukes You correct man for iniquity,
    You make his beauty melt away like a moth;
    Surely every man is vapor. Selah
  • Hear my prayer, Jehovah, and give ear unto my cry; be not silent at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, a sojourner, like all my fathers.
  • “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.
  • Look away from me, and let me recover strength, before I go hence and be no more.
  • Remove Your gaze from me, that I may regain strength,
    Before I go away and am no more.”
