Psalm 39:4
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
“Show me, O LORD, my end and the measure of my days. Let me know how fleeting my life is.
In context
2 I was speechless and still; I remained silent, even from speaking good, and my sorrow was stirred.
3 My heart grew hot within me; as I mused, the fire burned. Then I spoke with my tongue:
4 “Show me, O LORD, my end and the measure of my days. Let me know how fleeting my life is.
5 You, indeed, have made my days as handbreadths, and my lifetime as nothing before You. Truly each man at his best exists as but a breath. Selah
6 Surely every man goes about like a phantom; surely he bustles in vain; he heaps up riches not knowing who will haul them away.
