4. “Lord, make me to know my end,And what is the measure of my days,That I may know how frail I am.
5. Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths,And my age is as nothing before You;Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor.Selah
6. Surely every man walks about like a shadow;Surely they busy themselves in vain;He heaps up riches,And does not know who will gather them.
7. “And now, Lord, what do I wait for?My hope is in You.
8. Deliver me from all my transgressions;Do not make me the reproach of the foolish.
9. I was mute, I did not open my mouth,Because it was You who did it.
10. Remove Your plague from me;I am consumed by the blow of Your hand.
