Psalms 39:3
Berean Standard Bible
My heart grew hot within me; as I mused, the fire burned. Then I spoke with my tongue:
Context
1I said, “I will watch my ways
so that I will not sin with my tongue;
I will guard my mouth with a muzzle
as long as the wicked are present.” 2I was speechless and still;
I remained silent, even from speaking good,
and my sorrow was stirred. 3My heart grew hot within me;
as I mused, the fire burned.
Then I spoke with my tongue: 4“Show me, O LORD, my end
and the measure of my days.
Let me know how fleeting my life is. 5You, indeed, have made my days as handbreadths,
and my lifetime as nothing before You.
Truly each man at his best
exists as but a breath.
Selah
