Psalm 39:7 in context

1. 5Behold, you have made my days hand widths.
   My lifetime is as nothing before you.
   Surely every man stands as a breath.”
2. 6“Surely every man walks like a shadow.
   Surely they busy themselves in vain.
   He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.
3. 7Now, Lord, what do I wait for?
   My hope is in you.
4. 8Deliver me from all my transgressions.
   Don’t make me the reproach of the foolish.
5. 9I was mute.
   I didn’t open my mouth,
   because you did it.
