Psalm 39:4-6
Christian Standard Bible
4 “Lord, make me aware of my end
and the number of my days
so that I will know how short-lived I am.(A)
5 In fact, you have made my days just inches long,
and my life span is as nothing to you.
Yes, every human being stands as only a vapor.(B)Selah
6 Yes, a person goes about like a mere shadow.
Indeed, they rush around in vain,
gathering possessions
without knowing who will get them.(C)
Psalm 39:4-6
New International Version
