I WILL KEEP MY MOUTH WITH A BRIDLE, WHILE THE WICKED IS BEFORE ME...

Psalm 39

King James Version (KJV)

1.     I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue:

        I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.

2.     I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good;
        and my sorrow was stirred.
3.     My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned:
        then spake I with my tongue,
4.     Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days,
        what it is: that I may know how frail I am.
5.     Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee:
        verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
6.     Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: 
        he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7.     And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
8.     Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
9.     I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.
10.   Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11.   When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, 
        thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12.   Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears:
        for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
13.   O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
