Psalms 39:7 Context
5Behold, thou hast made my dayes as an hand breadth, and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily euery man at his best state is altogether vanitie. Selah. 6Surely euery man walketh in a vaine shew: surely they are disquieted in vaine: he heapeth vp riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them. 7And now Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee. 8Deliuer me from all my transgressions: make mee not the reproch of the foolish. 9I was dumbe, I opened not my mouth; because thou diddest it.
