<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Tehillim (Book of Psalms), Chapter 39 ==<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;1&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; For the Leader, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;2&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; I said: 'I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue; I will keep a curb upon my mouth, while the wicked is before me.' <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;3&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; I was dumb with silence; I held my peace, had no comfort; and my pain was held in check. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;4&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt; My heart waxed hot within me; while I was musing, the fire kindled; then spoke I with my tongue: <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;5&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;5&lt;/sup&gt; 'HaShem, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; let me know how short-lived I am. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;6&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;6&lt;/sup&gt; Behold, Thou hast made my days as hand-breadths; and mine age is as nothing before Thee; surely every man at his best estate is altogether vanity. Selah <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;7&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;7&lt;/sup&gt; Surely man walketh as a mere semblance; surely for vanity they are in turmoil; he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;8&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;8&lt;/sup&gt; And now, L-rd, what wait I for? My hope, it is in Thee. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;9&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;9&lt;/sup&gt; Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the reproach of the base. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;10&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;10&lt;/sup&gt; I am dumb, I open not my mouth; because Thou hast done it. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;11&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;11&lt;/sup&gt; Remove Thy stroke from off me; I am consumed by the blow of Thy hand. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;12&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;12&lt;/sup&gt; With rebukes dost Thou chasten man for iniquity, and like a moth Thou makest his beauty to consume away; surely every man is vanity. Selah <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;13&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt; Hear my prayer, O HaShem, and give ear unto my cry; keep not silence at my tears; for I am a stranger with Thee, a sojourner, as all my fathers were. <br /> <br /> &lt;named id=&quot;14&quot;/&gt;&lt;sup&gt;14&lt;/sup&gt; Look away from me, that I may take comfort, before I go hence, and be no more.' <br /> <br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[Tehillim 38|Previous Chapter]]<br /> * [[Tehillim 39 Commentaries]]<br /> * [[Tehillim 40|Next Chapter]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> &lt;references /&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Learning resources]]<br /> [[Category:Bible]]<br /> [[Category:Bible Contents]]<br /> <br /> [[he:תהילים לט]]<br /> <br /> [[1917 JPS Copyright|Portions &amp;copy; 1997 by Benyamin Pilant.
