1 I SAID, I will take heed to my ways that I sin not with my tongue; I will keep the words of my mouth under control while the wicked is before me. 2 I was dumb and sorrowful, I was wretched, I held myself aloof, even from good; and my sorrow was multiplied. 3 My heart was hot within me; and my body was on fire; then spoke I with my tongue, 4 LORD, show me mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know my destiny. 5 Behold, thou hast given my days a limit; and mine age is as nothing before thee; verily all men stand as a mere breath.
