Psalms 39:10-13 ▼

10 Remove your torment from me. Because of the force of your hand I am finished.

11 You discipline a person with punishment for iniquity, consuming like a moth what is precious to him; yes, every human being is only a vapor. Selah

12 “Hear my prayer, LORD, and listen to my cry for help; do not be silent at my tears. For I am here with you as an alien, a temporary resident like all my ancestors.

13 Turn your angry gaze from me so that I may be cheered up before I die and am gone.”
