Good News Translation.
1 For the choir director; for Jeduthun; a psalm by David. I said, "I will watch my ways so that I do not sin with my tongue. I will bridle my mouth while wicked people are in my presence."
2 I remained totally speechless. I kept silent, although it did me no good. While I was deep in thought, my pain grew worse.
3 My heart burned like a fire flaring up within me. Then I spoke with my tongue:
4 "Teach me, O LORD, about the end of my life. Teach me about the number of days I have left so that I may know how temporary my life is.
5 Indeed, you have made the length of my days only a few inches. My life span is nothing compared to yours. Certainly, everyone alive is like a whisper in the wind. Selah
