39 - David And The High Spirit[00:00:00]

Chapter 39[00:00:00]

I said I will guard my ways[00:01:22]

That I may not sin with my tongue[00:01:25]

I will bridle my mouth[00:01:27]

As long as the wicked are in my presence[00:01:29]

I was dumb and silent[00:01:32]

I held my peace to no avail[00:01:35]

My distress grew worse[00:01:37]

My heart became hot within me[00:01:39]

As I mused the fire burned[00:01:41]

Then I spoke with my tongue[00:01:43]

Lord let me know my end[00:01:46]

And what is the measure of my days[00:01:49]

Let me know how fleeting my life is[00:01:52]

Behold thou hast made my days a few handbreadths[00:01:55]

And my lifetime is as nothing in thy sight[00:01:59]

Surely every man stands as a mere breath[00:02:03]

Surely every man goes about as a shadow[00:02:07]

Surely for nought are they in turmoil[00:02:10]

Man heaps up and knows not who will gather[00:02:14]

And now Lord for what do I wait[00:02:18]

My hope is in thee[00:02:22]

Deliver me from all my transgressions[00:02:24]

Make me not the scorn of the fool[00:02:26]

I am dumb I do not open my mouth[00:02:29]

For it is thou who hast done it[00:02:32]

Remove thy stroke from me[00:02:35]

I am spent by the blows of thy hands[00:02:37]

When thou dost chasten man[00:02:40]

With rebukes for sin[00:02:42]

Thou dost consume like a moth what is dear to him[00:02:43]

Surely every man is a mere breath[00:02:49]

Hear my prayer O Lord[00:02:53]

And give ear to my cry[00:02:55]

Hold not thy peace at my tears[00:02:57]

For I am thy passing guest[00:03:00]

A sojourner like all my fathers[00:03:02]

Look away from me that I may know gladness[00:03:06]

Before I depart and be no more[00:03:09]
