Psalm 39:5-7
English Standard Version

5 Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths,
    and (A)my lifetime is as nothing before you.
Surely (B)all mankind stands as a mere breath! Selah
6     Surely a man (C)goes about as a shadow!
Surely for nothing[a] they are in turmoil;
    man (D)heaps up wealth and does not know who will gather!

7 “And now, O Lord, for what do I wait?
    (E)My hope is in you.
