Psalms 39:7-11

⁷And, now, what have I expected? O Lord, my hope — it is of Thee.

⁸From all my transgressions deliver me, A reproach of the fool make me not.

⁹I have been dumb, I open not my mouth, Because Thou — Thou hast done it.

¹⁰Turn aside from off me Thy stroke, From the striving of Thy hand I have been consumed.

¹¹With reproofs against iniquity, Thou hast corrected man, And dost waste as a moth his desirableness, Only, vanity is every man. Selah.
