Psalm 39

The Futility of Life.

For the music director, for Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

1I said, “I will keep watch over my ways

So that I do not sin with my tongue;

I will keep watch over my mouth as with a muzzle

While the wicked are in my presence.”

2I was mute and silent,

I refused to say even something good,

And my pain was stirred up.
