Psalms 39:4-8 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

4. Mine end, and measure of my days,O Lord, unto me showWhat is the same; that I therebymy frailty well may know.

5. Lo, thou my days an handbreadth mad'st;mine age is in thine eyeAs nothing: sure each man at bestis wholly vanity.

6. Sure each man walks in a vain show;they vex themselves in vain:He heaps up wealth, and doth not knowto whom it shall pertain.

7. And now, O Lord, what wait I for?my hope is fix'd on thee.

8. Free me from all my trespasses,the fool's scorn make not me.
