Psalm 39:11-13

World English Bible

¹¹ When you rebuke and correct man for iniquity,
    you consume his wealth like a moth.
Surely every man is but a breath.” Selah.
¹² “Hear my prayer, Yahweh, and give ear to my cry.
    Don’t be silent at my tears.
For I am a stranger with you,
    a foreigner, as all my fathers were.
¹³ Oh spare me, that I may recover strength,
    before I go away and exist no more.”
