Psalms 38
1
For the end, a Song of David, to Idithun.
2
I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I set a guard on my mouth, while the sinner stood in my presence.
3
I was dumb, and humbled myself, and kept silence from good words; and my grief was renewed.
4
My heart grew hot within me, and a fire would kindle in my meditation: I spoke with my tongue,
5
O Lord, make me to know mine end, and the number of my days, what it is; that I may know what I lack.
6
Behold, thou hast made my days old; and my existence is as nothing before thee: nay, every man living is altogether vanity. Pause.

Notes
+
Alex. a span long.
7
Surely man walks in a shadow; nay, he is disquieted in vain: he lays up treasures, and knows not for whom he shall gather them.
1
Notes
+
Gr. image.
8
And now what is my expectation? is it not the Lord? and my ground of hope is with thee. Pause.
9
Deliver me from all my transgressions: thou hast made me a reproach to the foolish.
10
I was dumb, and opened not my mouth; for thou art he that made me.
1
Notes
+
Gr. made dumb.
11
Remove thy scourges from me: I have fainted by reason of the strength of thine hand.
12
Thou chastenest man with rebukes for iniquity, and thou makest his life to consume away like a spider's web: nay, every man is disquieted in vain. Pause.
13
O Lord, hearken to my prayer and my supplication: attend to my tears: be not silent, for I am a sojourner in the land, and a stranger, as all my fathers were.
14
Spare me, that I may be refreshed, before I depart, and be no more.
