 1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.*

 2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, *even* from good; and my sorrow was stirred.*

 3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: *then* spake I with my tongue,

 4 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it *is; that* I may know how frail I *am*.*

 5 Behold, thou hast made my days *as* an handbreadth; and mine age *is* as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state *is* altogether vanity. Selah.*

 6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up *riches*, and knoweth not who shall gather them.*

 7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope *is* in thee.

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

 9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst *it*.

 10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.*

 11 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man *is* vanity. Selah.*

 12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I *am* a stranger with thee, *and* a sojourner, as all my fathers *were*.

 13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
