Psalms 39:6-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 39
6Certainly every person walks around as a fleeting shadow; They certainly make an uproar for nothing; He amasses riches and does not know who will gather them. 7'And now, Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in You. 8Save me from all my wrongdoings; Do not make me an object of reproach for the foolish. 9I have become mute, I do not open my mouth, Because it is You who have done it.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 39
6Yes, a person goes about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they rush around in vain, gathering possessions without knowing who will get them. 7"Now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in you. 8Rescue me from all my transgressions; do not make me the taunt of fools. 9I am speechless; I do not open my mouth because of what you have done.New Living Translation
Chapter 39
6We are merely moving shadows, and all our busy rushing ends in nothing. We heap up wealth, not knowing who will spend it. 7And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you. 8Rescue me from my rebellion. Do not let fools mock me. 9I am silent before you; I won’t say a word, for my punishment is from you.English Standard Version
Chapter 39
6Surely a man goes about as a shadow! Surely for nothing they are in turmoil; man heaps up wealth and does not know who will gather! 7"And now, O Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in you. 8Deliver me from all my transgressions. Do not make me the scorn of the fool! 9 I am mute; I do not open my mouth, for it is you who have done it.New International Version
Chapter 39
6"Surely everyone goes around like a mere phantom; in vain they rush about, heaping up wealth without knowing whose it will finally be. 7"But now, Lord, what do I look for? My hope is in you. 8Save me from all my transgressions; do not make me the scorn of fools. 9I was silent; I would not open my mouth, for you are the one who has done this.New King James Version
