Verse
KJV
King James Version
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
I said, I will
take
heed
to
my ways, that
I
sin
not
with my tongue :
I will
keep my mouth with
a bridle
, while the wicked is before me.
To
the
Overseer,
to
Jeduthun.
--
A
Psalm
of
David.
I have
said, `
I observe
my ways, Against
sinning
with my tongue ,
I keep for
my mouth a curb
, while the wicked `
is '
before me. '
I was dumb with silence, I held
my
peace,
even
from good ;
and my sorrow
was
stirred
.
I was dumb `
with '
silence, I kept
silent
from good ,
and my pain
is
excited
.
My heart was
hot
within me, while
I
was
musing
the fire burned:
then
spake
I with my tongue ,
Hot
`is'
my heart within me, In
my
meditating
doth
the fire burn,
I have
spoken
with my tongue .
LORD,
make
me to know mine end, and the measure of my days ,
what it is :
that
I may
know how frail I am.
`Cause
me to know ,
O
Jehovah,
mine end, And the measure of my days --
what it `
is ','
I know how frail I `
am '
.
Behold
, thou hast made my days as
an
handbreadth;
and mine age is as nothing before thee :
verily
every man at
his
best
state
is
altogether
vanity
. Selah.
Lo
, handbreadths
Thou hast made my days ,
And mine age `
is '
as nothing before Thee ,
Only,
all
vanity
`is'
every man set
up
. Selah.
Surely
every
man
walketh
in a
vain shew:
surely
they are disquieted in
vain:
he heapeth up riches,
and knoweth not who shall
gather
them.
Only,
in an
image
doth
each
walk
habitually,
Only,
`in'
vain ,
they are disquieted ,
He heapeth up and knoweth not who gathereth
them.
And now
, Lord
, what wait
I for
? my hope is in
thee.
And, now
, what have
I expected
? O
Lord,
my hope --
it
`
is '
of
Thee.
Deliver
me
from all my transgressions :
make
me not
the
reproach of the foolish
.
From all my transgressions deliver
me ,
A
reproach of the fool
make
me
not
.
I was
dumb, I opened
not my mouth ;
because thou didst
it.
I have
been
dumb, I open
not my mouth ,
Because Thou --
Thou
hast
done
`
it '
.
Remove
thy stroke away
from me:
I
am
consumed
by
the blow
of thine
hand.
Turn
aside
from
off
me
Thy stroke ,
From the striving
of Thy
hand I
have
been
consumed
.
When
thou
with rebukes
dost
correct
man
for
iniquity, thou makest
his
beauty
to
consume
away
like
a moth :
surely
every man is
vanity
. Selah.
With reproofs
against
iniquity, Thou hast
corrected
man,
And
dost
waste
as
a moth his
desirableness,
Only,
vanity
`is'
every man. Selah.
Hear my prayer, O LORD
, and give ear unto my cry;
hold
not thy
peace
at
my
tears:
for I am a
stranger
with thee, and
a sojourner,
as
all my fathers were
.
Hear my prayer, O Jehovah
, And `to'
my
cry
give ear ,
Unto my tear
be
not silent,
For a
sojourner
I `
am '
with Thee, A settler
like
all my fathers.
O
spare
me, that
I may
recover
strength,
before I go hence,
and be
no
more.
Look
from
me, and
I brighten
up
before I go and am
not!
