1 To the chief Musician H5329 , even to Jeduthun H3038 , A Psalm H4210 of David H1732 . I said H559 VQQ1MS , I will take heed H8104 to my ways H1870 , that I sin not H2398 with my tongue H3956 : I will keep H8104 my mouth H6310 L-CMS with a bridle H4269 , while H5750 the wicked H7563 AMS is before H5048 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 NMS-1MS was hot H2552 within H7130 me , while I was musing H1901 the fire H784 CMS burned H1197 : then spoke H1696 VPQ1MS I with my tongue H3956 ,
4 LORD H3068 EDS , make me to know H3045 mine end H7093 , and the measure H4060 of my days H3117 CMS-1MS , what H4100 IPRO it H1931 PPRO-3FS is ; that I may know H3045 VQI1MS how H4100 IPRO frail H2310 I H589 PPRO-1MS am .
5 Behold H2009 IJEC , thou hast made H5414 UNKN my days H3117 CMS-1MS as a handbreadth H2947 ; and mine age H2465 is as nothing H369 before H5048 thee : verily H389 ADV every H3605 NMS man H120 NMS at his best state H5324 is altogether H3605 NMS vanity H1892 NMS . Selah H5542 .
6 Surely H389 ADV every man H376 NMS walketh H1980 in a vain show H6754 B-CMS : surely H389 ADV they are disquieted H1993 in vain H1892 NMS : he heapeth up H6651 VQY3MS riches , and knoweth H3045 not H3808 W-NPAR who H4310 IPRO shall gather H622 them .
7 And now H6258 W-ADV , Lord H136 EDS , what H4100 IPRO wait H6960 I for ? my hope H8431 is in thee .
8 Deliver H5337 me from all H3605 M-CMS my transgressions H6588 : make H7760 me not H408 NPAR the reproach H2781 of the foolish H5036 AMS .
9 I was dumb H481 , I opened H6605 VQY1MS not H3808 NADV my mouth H6310 ; because H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS didst H6213 VQQ2MS it .
10 Remove H5493 thy stroke H5061 away from M-PREP-1MS me : I H589 PPRO-1MS am consumed H3615 by the blow H8409 of thine hand H3027 CFS-2MS .
11 When thou with rebukes H8433 dost correct H3256 VPQ2MS man H376 NMS for H5921 PREP iniquity H5771 NMS , thou makest his beauty H2530 to consume away H4529 like a moth H6211 : surely H389 ADV every H3605 NMS man H120 NMS is vanity H1892 NMS . Selah H5542 .
12 Hear H8085 my prayer H8605 , O LORD H3068 EDS , and give ear H238 VHI2MS-3FS unto my cry H7775 ; hold not thy peace H2790 at H413 PREP my tears H1832 : for H3588 CONJ I H595 PPRO-1MS am a stranger H1616 with H5973 PREP-2FS thee , and a sojourner H8453 , as all H3605 my fathers H1 were .
13 O spare H8159 me , that I may recover strength H1082 W-VHI1MS , before H2962 B-ADV I go H1980 VQY1MS hence , and be no H369 W-ADV-1MS more .
