Psalm 39:6-8

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁶ Surely every man walks to and fro—like a shadow in a pantomime; surely for futility and emptiness he is in turmoil; each one heaps up riches, not knowing who will gather them.^(A)

⁷ And now, Lord, what do I wait for and expect? My hope and expectation are in You.

⁸ Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the scorn and reproach of the [self-confident] fool!
