New King James Version

Psalms 39:6-10 New King James Version (NKJV)

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.
