To the chief Musician{H5329}{(H8764)}, even to Jeduthun{H3038}, A Psalm{H4210} of David{H1732}.

My heart{H3820} was hot{H2552}{(H8804)} within{H7130} me, while I was musing{H1901} the fire{H784} burned{H1197}{H8799)}: then{H227} spake{H1696}{H8765)} I with my tongue{H3956},
Psalms 39:4
LORD{H3068}, make me to know{H3045}{(H8685)} mine end{H7093}, and the measure{H4060} of my days{H3117}, what it is; that I may know{H3045}{H8799)} how frail{H2310} I am.
Psalms 39:5
Behold, thou hast made{H5414}{(H8804)} my days{H3117} as an handbreadth{H2947}; and mine age{H2465} is as nothing before thee: verily every{H3605} man{H120} at his best state{H5324}{H8737)} is altogether{H3605} vanity{H1892}. Selah{H5542}.

Remove{H5493} thy stroke{H5061} away{H5493}{(H8685)} from me: I am consumed{H3615}{H8804)} by the blow{H8409} of thine hand{H3027}.
Psalms 39:11
When thou with rebukes{H8433} dost correct{H3256}{(H8765)} man{H376} for iniquity{H5771}, thou makest his beauty{H2530}{H8803)} to consume away{H4529}{H8686)} like a moth{H6211}: surely every man{H120} is vanity{H1892}. Selah{H5542}.

Hear{H8085}{(H8798)} my prayer{H8605}, O LORD{H3068}, and give ear{H238}{H8685)} unto my cry{H7775}; hold not thy peace{H2790}{H8799)} at my tears{H1832}: for I am a stranger{H1616} with thee, and a sojourner{H8453}, as all my fathers{H1} were.

O spare{H8159}{(H8685)} me, that I may recover strength{H1082}{H8686)}, before I go hence{H3212}{H8799)}, and be no more.
