New American Standard Bible

New Living Translation

  • I said, “I will guard my ways
    That I may not sin with my tongue;
    I will guard my mouth as with a muzzle
    While the wicked are in my presence.”
  • For Jeduthun, the choir director: A psalm of David.

    I said to myself, “I will watch what I do
    and not sin in what I say.
    I will hold my tongue
    when the ungodly are around me.”
  • I was mute and silent,
    I refrained even from good,
    And my sorrow grew worse.
  • But as I stood there in silence —
    not even speaking of good things —
    the turmoil within me grew worse.
  • My heart was hot within me,
    While I was musing the fire burned;
    Then I spoke with my tongue:
  • The more I thought about it,
    the hotter I got,
    igniting a fire of words:
  • “LORD, make me to know my end
    And what is the extent of my days;
    Let me know how transient I am.
  • “LORD, remind me how brief my time on earth will be.
    Remind me that my days are numbered —
    how fleeting my life is.
  • “Behold, You have made my days as handbreadths,
    And my lifetime as nothing in Your sight;
    Surely every man at his best is a mere breath.
    Selah.
    “Surely every man walks about as a phantom;
    Surely they make an uproar for nothing;
    He amasses riches and does not know who will gather them.
    “And now, Lord, for what do I wait?
    My hope is in You.
    “Deliver me from all my transgressions;
    Make me not the reproach of the foolish.
    “I have become mute, I do not open my mouth,
    Because it is You who have done it.
    “Remove Your plague from me;
    Because of the opposition of Your hand I am perishing.
    “With reproofs You chasten a man for iniquity;
    You consume as a moth what is precious to him;
    Surely every man is a mere breath.
    Selah.
    “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 like all my fathers.
    “Turn Your gaze away from me, that I may smile again
    Before I depart and am no more.”

  • You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand.
    My entire lifetime is just a moment to you;
    at best, each of us is but a breath.”
    Interlude
  • “Surely every man walks about as a phantom;
    Surely they make an uproar for nothing;
    He amasses riches and does not know who will gather them.
  • We are merely moving shadows,
    and all our busy rushing ends in nothing.
    We heap up wealth,
    not knowing who will spend it.
  • “And now, Lord, for what do I wait?
    My hope is in You.
  • And so, Lord, where do I put my hope?
    My only hope is in you.
  • “Deliver me from all my transgressions;
    Make me not the reproach of the foolish.
  • Rescue me from my rebellion.
    Do not let fools mock me.
  • “I have become mute, I do not open my mouth,
    Because it is You who have done it.
  • I am silent before you; I won’t say a word,
    for my punishment is from you.
  • “Remove Your plague from me;
    Because of the opposition of Your hand I am perishing.
  • But please stop striking me!
    I am exhausted by the blows from your hand.
  • “With reproofs You chasten a man for iniquity;
    You consume as a moth what is precious to him;
    Surely every man is a mere breath.
    Selah.
    “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 like all my fathers.
    “Turn Your gaze away from me, that I may smile again
    Before I depart and am no more.”
  • When you discipline us for our sins,
    you consume like a moth what is precious to us.
    Each of us is but a breath.
    Interlude
  • “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 like all my fathers.
  • Hear my prayer, O LORD!
    Listen to my cries for help!
    Don’t ignore my tears.
    For I am your guest —
    a traveler passing through,
    as my ancestors were before me.
  • “Turn Your gaze away from me, that I may smile again
    Before I depart and am no more.”
  • Leave me alone so I can smile again
    before I am gone and exist no more.
